Multi-Product Message Templates

The Multi-Product Message (MPM) Templates are used to open marketing conversations that allow businesses to showcase up to 30 products from their e-commerce catalog, organized in up to ten sections in a single message.

You can browse products and sections within the message, view details for each product, add and remove products from your cart, and submit the cart to place an order. The orders are then sent to the business via a webhook.

The following are the examples of Multi Product Message Template that can be viewed by the end-user:
