How do I run a Diwali, Onam or Ramadan offer on WhatsApp?
Updated 30 September 2026
Send festival offers to customers who opted in, as a broadcast in the Business app or an approved marketing template on the API. Post the same offer on Status.
- Templates can take up to 24 hours to be approved, so submit yours days before the festival.
- Business app: a broadcast list holds up to 256 contacts, and only people who saved your number receive it.
- API marketing rates per delivered message from 1 October 2026: ₹0.8631 in India, AED 0.2115 in the UAE, SAR 0.2159 in Saudi Arabia.
- A Status lasts 24 hours, which suits a festival-day special.
Festival offers customers can use at checkout
Menuthere sends broadcasts from your own WhatsApp number and runs coupons and offers on your ordering page, so a Diwali, Onam or Ramadan offer reaches customers and works when they order.
