When should you send Eid messages?
Timing: 3-5 days before Eid, once the date is announced. Space messages so no contact gets more than two or three in the run-up. Sending only to opted-in contacts is a Meta requirement, and a high block rate lowers your sending limits.
Which Meta category does a Eid template fall under?
Any message that promotes an offer is a marketing template, and so is a pure greeting from a business in most cases. Marketing messages are billed per delivered message. Meta sets the India rate and changes it, so check the current rate card before budgeting; our WhatsApp API pricing guide explains the categories. InboxWA passes Meta's fee through with zero markup.
A mistake to avoid
Fixing a send date before the moon sighting is confirmed. Prepare a flexible schedule.
How to send these with InboxWA
- Submit the template for approval from the templates screen (approval is by Meta, often within minutes, sometimes longer).
- Upload your contact list as a CSV and map the variables. See WhatsApp broadcast software.
- Send to opted-in contacts, then follow replies in the shared inbox or let the AI agent qualify them.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need approved templates to send a Eid offer on WhatsApp?
Yes. Messages you start outside the 24-hour customer service window must use a template approved by Meta. Inside that window, after the customer messages you, you can reply freely.
Can I send Eid messages to everyone in my contact list?
Only to contacts who have opted in to receive messages from your business. Sending to people who did not agree raises block and report rates, which can cut your messaging limits.
Can I add images or buttons?
Yes. Marketing templates can include an image header and call-to-action or quick-reply buttons. Buttons keep the message short and make replies easy to track.
