What should a restaurant post on WhatsApp Status?
Updated 30 September 2026
Post what is true today: the special, a new dish, a sold-out notice or a time-limited offer, with a photo and how to order. A Status disappears after 24 hours.
- A Status can be text, a photo, a video or a GIF. A video can run up to 90 seconds.
- Because it expires, use it for things that change daily: today's special, a weekend offer, a dish that just sold out.
- Share your catalog, or one item, from Catalog Manager: tap Share, then Add to status.
- Post from your phone. Linked devices such as WhatsApp Web cannot add or delete a Status.
Give every Status post an order link
Menuthere gives you one ordering link and QR code to put in every Status post. When a dish sells out, mark it out of stock in your dashboard so the menu stops offering it.
