WhatsApp message templates for museums and exhibition venues

Museums and exhibition venues need six templates: four utility and two marketing. Utility covers ticket confirmation, visit-slot reminders, group bookings and workshop details; marketing covers new exhibitions and member previews.

Visitors plan a slot and arrive with questions, while schools and groups need coordination. WhatsApp confirms the time, shares directions and keeps a booked group together on the day.

Ticket Confirmation

Hi {{1}}, your entry to {{2}} on {{3}} between {{4}} is confirmed. Show this ticket at the gate.

How the category changes what you pay

  • Every template is submitted under one category, and Meta assigns the final one in review. A utility template that reads like a promotion can be reclassified as marketing, which changes both the rate and the opt-in requirement.
  • Since 1 October 2026, service messages are charged per delivered message after the first 1,000 free service messages per business phone number per month. The allowance does not roll over and there are no volume tiers.
  • Inbound messages are free, and a customer-initiated message opens the 24-hour customer service window. Anything you start outside that window needs an approved template.
