Instructional Examples, Not Ready-to-Send Content

Every template below is a generic, how-to resource with no party or candidate branding — a starting point to adapt, not a message to copy and send as-is.

WhatsApp Requires Pre-Approval for Every Template

WhatsApp Business API only sends messages built from templates that Meta has pre-approved — a business cannot message someone outside an active conversation window with unapproved content. This applies to broadcast updates and internal coordination messages alike.

This page keeps that detail brief by design. For a full breakdown of why templates get rejected and how to avoid it, see our template guidelines resource, or our WhatsApp Business API for Election Campaigns page for the full channel overview.

Templates

5 WhatsApp Templates, by Category

Broadcast — Candidate Introduction

Candidate Introduction
Hello, [Candidate Name] is contesting from [Constituency] this election. Reply "Profile" to read the manifesto or "Volunteer" to help the campaign.
A first-touch broadcast template — sent to the public, opted-in voter list only.

Broadcast — Event Invite

Rally / Event Invite
Hello, you're invited to a public meeting with [Candidate Name] at [Venue] on [Date] at [Time]. Reply "Directions" for the venue map.
Attach a quick-reply button for "Directions" or "RSVP" where the template format allows it — reduces free-text replies to handle.

Broadcast — Event Reminder

Event Reminder
Hello, this is a reminder for the public meeting at [Venue] on [Date] at [Time]. Reply "Details" for the full agenda or "Directions" for the venue map.
Best scheduled 24–48 hours ahead of the event, as a separate approved template from the original invite.

Internal — Volunteer Shift Update

Volunteer Shift Update (Internal)
Hi team, your booth assignment for [Date] is [Booth Number], [Location]. Report by [Time]. Reply "Confirmed" once you've noted this.
Sent only to an internal volunteer/booth-worker list, never the public voter broadcast list.

Broadcast — Event RSVP Confirmation

RSVP Confirmation
Thanks for confirming! We've noted you'll be at [Venue] on [Date]. See you there — reply "Cancel" if your plans change.
A reply-triggered template, sent automatically once a voter responds "RSVP" or a similar quick-reply to the event invite.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Can these WhatsApp templates be sent as-is?

No. These are generic, instructional examples with placeholder fields. WhatsApp requires every template to be submitted with its real, final content and pre-approved by Meta before it can be sent to voters — the placeholders here must be replaced first.

Why does WhatsApp require template pre-approval?

WhatsApp pre-approves templates to prevent spam and enforce its commerce and political-content policies before a business can message someone outside an active conversation window. This applies to every category — broadcast updates, event invites, and internal coordination messages alike.

What's the difference between a broadcast template and a group coordination message?

A broadcast template goes to the public, opted-in voter list — candidate updates, event invites. A group coordination message goes to a smaller, internal volunteer or booth-worker list, and typically carries operational content rather than public campaign messaging. Keeping the two lists and templates separate avoids sending internal logistics to the general voter audience.
