Updates about a transaction or account the customer already has with you: orders, payments, appointments, bookings. Must contain no promotional content, or Meta will re-categorise it as Marketing.

Typical utility use cases: Order and shipping updates, payment receipts, reminders.

Meta can re-categorise a template during review if the content does not match. Learn how categories work in our guide to WhatsApp template messages and how each category is billed in WhatsApp conversation pricing.
