How should I group my menu into collections in the WhatsApp catalog?
Updated 30 September 2026
Group the catalog the way your printed menu is grouped, with one collection per section such as Starters, Mains, Breads and Desserts. Add the items first, then create the collections.
- Keep the sections in the order customers read your menu, and name them the way your menu does.
- Add every item to the catalog first. Then open Catalog, choose Add new collection, name it and tick its items.
- WhatsApp reviews each collection, which should take no more than 24 hours. Customers see it once it is approved.
- To reorder, open Collections, tap Reorder, drag a collection to a new place and Save.
- Hide an item that has sold out instead of deleting it, so it is easy to bring back.
