WhatsApp message templates for nightclubs and lounges

Nightclubs and lounges need six templates: four utility and two marketing. Utility covers reservation confirmation, entry and dress-code reminders, guest-list updates and prepayment; marketing covers event nights and table or bottle packages.

The door moves fastest when guests arrive with a confirmed table and the rules already set. WhatsApp confirms reservations, shares entry and dress-code details and pushes event nights straight to regular guests.

Reservation Confirmation

Utility

Send it when: When a table is reserved

Hi {{1}}, your table for {{2}} on {{3}} is confirmed for {{4}} guests. Reply by end of day if the group size changes.

Entry and Dress-Code Reminder

Utility

Send it when: The day of the reservation

Hi {{1}}, a reminder for tonight: entry from {{2}}, dress code {{3}} and ID is mandatory. Reply YES to confirm you are coming.

Guest-List Update

Utility

Send it when: When names are added or confirmed

Hi {{1}}, {{2}} names are on the guest list for {{3}}. Entry closes at {{4}}. Reply ADD to include more names.

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.
