Hey there, savvy marketers did you know that Meta has rolled out a new rule on Per User Marketing Template Message Limits On WhatsApp?
Brace yourselves for a game-changing update in the world of WhatsApp, the powerhouse of messaging apps. As of February 6, 2024, WhatsApp is rolling out a revamp of its marketing template messages, starting in the vibrant hub of India (source).
So, buckle up for an insightful journey through the upcoming changes on New Template Message Limits and how they’re set to sprinkle a dash of excitement into your business strategies.
📌Decoding the New Marketing Template Message Limits:
Picture this: WhatsApp is unleashing per-user marketing template message limits, initially embracing a select group of users in India. But here’s the scoop – by February 13, 2024, every WhatsApp user rocking an Indian phone number will be dancing to the same tune.
Hold tight; it’s not a tailored restriction for your business alone but rather a cap on the total marketing template messages any user receives.
To add to this – If a customer has already opened a marketing conversation (message) from a brand/business, the next marketing template messages sent to the same user will not be affected.
This is again tricky as Meta doesn’t say the next message can be sent on the same day or the next day and so on. Even the automated abandoned cart recovery messages are at times treated like marketing messages to your customers by Meta.
But what we understood is that Meta’s idea is to make WhatsApp into a utility platform (Example: Bangalore metro rail ticket booking on whatsapp) rather than a bulk message blast platform where brands bombard people with discount offers etc on Holi, Christmas, and obviously Diwali.

Caught in the web of an error code?
Take a breath and resist the urge to hit resend like a mad marketer.
Instead, finesse your strategy – retry in increasingly larger time increments until the message gracefully finds its way to the user. The limit might play hard to get for varying durations, so a little patience can go a long way. Try sending messages to those customers of yours who know you and are aware of your brand. Double check and take consent from all those customer numbers who you bought from some agency for bulk blasting messages on whatsapp message sender – don’t do it.
