How much does a WhatsApp message cost for retail & local stores?
It depends on the category. A marketing message (offers, promotions) costs ₹1.09 plus GST, and a utility message (updates, reminders) costs ₹0.145 plus GST. AiConva adds a flat ₹0.10 per message on top of Meta's rate. This pack leans marketing-heavy, so a blended estimate is around ₹1.40 per message all-in. Run your exact volume through our pricing calculator for a precise figure.
Are these WhatsApp templates approved by Meta?
These templates are written to follow Meta's content rules (no ALL CAPS, no urgency pressure, opt-out on marketing messages, footers under 60 characters). You import them as drafts into your AiConva workspace, review them, and submit to Meta for approval — most well-structured templates are approved within hours.
Can I customise these templates for my retail & local stores business?
Yes. Each template uses numbered variables ({{1}}, {{2}}) for the dynamic parts (customer name, order number, date). After importing, you edit the wording and fill in your business name, then submit. The category (marketing/utility/authentication) is what you set on import.
Do I need opt-in before sending these?
Yes for marketing templates. You can only message contacts who opted in. Utility and authentication messages can be sent in response to a customer request or for transactional updates without a separate opt-in. AiConva records the opt-in source against each contact so you can prove consent.
