Variables such as {{1}} are filled with each customer’s details when you send. Example values are shown in the preview. Writing your own? Check it before you submit.

When to send it

  • As soon as a table request by phone or chat is accepted
  • For large parties and special occasions booked days in advance
  • On the day of the booking, as a short reminder
  • When the seating or time has been changed at the guest’s request

Tips for approval and replies

  • Say how long you hold the table after the booking time; guests who are running late will tell you.
  • A “Get directions” button and a “Call restaurant” button are fine in utility. A link to this week’s specials is not.
  • No “try our new dessert” lines. Suggesting dishes to order turns the confirmation into marketing.
  • Guests who reply to change a booking land in the wbm.link team inbox, where the manager on shift can see and handle them.

Utility templates are about something the customer already did, carry nothing promotional, and cost far less per message than marketing. Add an offer and Meta bills it as marketing. See what it costs · More for restaurants & cloud kitchens: WhatsApp for restaurants & cloud kitchens

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Something else on your mind? Ask us.

Can restaurants confirm table bookings on WhatsApp?

Yes, with a utility template sent to the guest who made the booking. It should cover the reservation only — date, time, party size and address.

Can I mention a birthday or anniversary in the confirmation?

Yes. Noting that it is a birthday or anniversary booking is part of the reservation. Promising a complimentary cake or a discount for the occasion would make the message promotional.
