A checkout template for quiet chats, in one click

Released 30 October 2026

You no longer have to build a checkout-button template by hand: the orders set-up offers a ready-made one and creates it on your number in one click.

What's new

• A ready-made template — under Choose how customers pay → Pay in the chat, the set-up shows the template's words and its "Review and Pay" button, with Create on this number beneath.
• Picked as soon as it is created — and the step tells you where it stands: with Meta for review, approved, or not approved (with Meta's reason and Submit again).
• Clearly optional — most invoices go straight into the open chat, because they answer a cart the customer has just sent. The template is only used for a cart answered more than 24 hours after the customer last wrote, for example one held for your team to check.
• Your own still works — pick any approved template with a checkout button instead.

Meta files it as a marketing template, so it is billed only when it actually goes out, after a chat has gone quiet. Creating it needs permission to manage WhatsApp templates.
