WhatsApp Business Platform: Limitations on marketing messages imposed globally
To preserve WhatsApp’s reputation as a premium platform for business interactions, Meta is implementing frequency capping on marketing traffic globally.
A new set of advanced measurement mechanisms will limit the number of marketing conversations a user receives from a business in a given period, and all other marketing messages beyond that limit will be blocked.
To enhance the user experience, the business is currently allowed to send two marketing messages per conversation (24-hour conversation window).
If a user responds, free-form messages, including interactive messages such as URLs, CTAs, Lists, and Flows, should be sent to continue the conversation.
A business is also allowed to send one further marketing template in that 24-hour conversation window regardless of the user’s response.
In case the user doesn’t respond to any of those two marketing messages, a business can attempt to send an additional campaign at another time after the conversation window is closed.
Blocked messages are identified by a new error code 7032, which helps you monitor drop rates due to quality initiatives.
This includes but is not limited to, the per-user marketing limit. If a marketing template message is not delivered to a given user due to the limit, the error code description will be EC_FREQUENCY_CAPPING.
To navigate these changes, Infobip offers several solutions. Contact your Account Manager to learn more about how to overcome these traffic challenges. In the meantime, read our blog and find out how to build perfect marketing strategy on WhatsApp.

To achieve high-quality conversations that bring more conversions, now you can send a Flows message as a template.
Provide more value from the start with the new Flows template feature, available via API and Portal. Reach out to customers with messages that include a CTA, automatically activating Flows and improving interaction efficiency.
With Flows you can use different elements, including forms, radio buttons, checkboxes, and drop-down menus, to build and enhance ‘app-like’ rich customer experiences within WhatsApp.
Answers: Streamline the bot-building experience by using Copy and paste, and Conversation tag features
You asked, and we delivered! Creation of bots in Answers just became easier with the Copy and paste feature.
When you have to utilize similar elements throughout the bot, especially those that are more complex or difficult to create (Conditions element, Call API function, etc.), this new feature will help you streamline the bot-building experience, making it faster and more efficient.
As an additional enhancement in Answers, we’re introducing a powerful new element designed to offload tasks from agents and maximize data collection.
The chatbot can be designed to identify and tag customer interests as users move through their journey. By adding this new element – Conversations tags – in the chatbot flow, you will minimize time-to-handle conversation by directing the inquiry to the appropriate queue, ensuring it reaches the most qualified agent for the specific topic.

Banking: Agents as Personal Bankers
When a customer expresses interest in a mortgage and sends a message, it’s routed directly to their personal banker (Agent assigned). This personalized approach ensures that their needs are handled by someone familiar with their financial history.
Telecoms: Agents as Trusted Telco Assistants
As customers approach the renewal of their telco services (mobile phone, internet, etc.), they reach out to the agent they last interacted with. This agent, having prior knowledge of the customer’s preferences and issues, provides tailored assistance for service renewals or issues.
