When to send it

Utility templates carry information the customer expects because of something they did: a booking, an order, a payment, a request. Meta prices them at the utility rate (Rs 0.115 per message in India from April 2026) and does not count them against marketing frequency caps, but the body must stay transactional. Add a promotional line and Meta reclassifies the template as marketing, which costs seven times more per message and is subject to per-user caps.

Use case: Review Request. Send it from an automation (appointment stage change, order status, payment event) so it goes out the moment the trigger happens, or from the inbox when a customer asks.

Approval tips

  • Keep every sentence about the specific transaction. A signature line or a "reply to reschedule" instruction is fine; "check out our new packages" is not.
  • Use variables for anything that changes per customer (name, service, time, amount). Meta rejects templates whose sample values look like placeholders, so give realistic samples when you submit.
  • Utility messages can be sent at any time, inside or outside the 24-hour window, to any contact who has opted in.
  • Meta needs a sample value for every variable at submission time. The gallery supplies realistic samples for this template, so approval is usually quick.
  • Template names must be lowercase with underscores; the gallery uses cosmetic_review_request as the base name and adds a suffix if you already have one.

Cost per message

Sent to Indian numbers, this template costs the utility rate on Meta's April 2026 rate card: Rs 0.115 per delivered message, billed by Meta directly. VGraple CRM adds no markup. Rates for other countries are on the WhatsApp API pricing pages.

Frequently asked questions

Is "Cosmetic Product Review Request" a utility or a marketing template?
Utility. It carries transactional information about something the customer initiated, so Meta charges the utility rate and it is not subject to marketing frequency caps, as long as the body stays free of promotional content.
How do I use this template in VGraple CRM?
Open Templates, choose Gallery, filter by Cosmetic Store, and select "Cosmetic Product Review Request". The builder pre-fills the body, the variables and the sample values with your business name; submit it to Meta from the same screen. Approval usually takes minutes to a few hours.
Can I edit the wording before submitting?
Yes. Everything is editable in the builder. Keep the category honest: if you add promotional wording to a utility template, submit it as marketing, otherwise Meta will reclassify it and bill the higher rate.
