Below are ready-to-use WhatsApp template examples for Referbro touchpoints. Copy and customize these for your brand, then create them on your WhatsApp provider’s platform. When you’re ready to map approved templates in the app, use the WhatsApp templates setup Scribe.
Templates must be approved by Meta before they can be used. Submit them on your provider’s platform (e.g., Pragma, Meta Business Suite) and wait for approval before mapping them in Referbro.

1. Referral Invitation

Trigger: Customer clicks “Share on WhatsApp”

2. Order Confirmation

Trigger: After customer completes an order

3. Delivery Notification

Trigger: When the order is marked as delivered

4. Post Delivery Followup

Trigger: X days after delivery

5. Post-Referral Follow-up

Trigger: After a successful referral

6. Referrer Delivery Notification

Trigger: When a referred friend’s order is delivered

7. Reward Notification

Trigger: When referrer’s receives a reward
Reward Notification variables depend on the configured referrer reward type:
  • Gift Card: Use {{REFERRER_NAME}}, {{GIFT_CODE}}, {{PRODUCT_NAME}}, {{GIFT_URL}}
  • Discount Code (Flat/Percentage): Use {{REFERRER_NAME}}, {{DISCOUNT_CODE}}, {{DISCOUNT_VALUE}}, {{DISCOUNT_URL}}
  • Store Credit: Use {{REFERRER_NAME}}, {{CREDIT_AMOUNT}}, {{CURRENCY_CODE}}, {{BALANCE_AFTER}}
  • Cashback (Razorpay Payouts): Use {{REFERRER_NAME}}, {{PAYOUT_AMOUNT}}, {{UTR}} — sent after Razorpay processes the payout. See Razorpay Payouts Setup.
Do not mix gift, discount, and cashback placeholders in the same template unless your flow guarantees those values are present.

8. Nudge Reminder

Trigger: Scheduled reminder for dormant referrers

Beta Feature — This template is shown in WhatsApp Settings only when Razorpay Payouts is enabled. Contact arjun@referbro.com to enable it for your store.
Trigger: When a cashback payout link is created for the referrer
This message is sent when the claim link is created — before money moves. After Razorpay processes the payout, configure the Reward Notification template with {{PAYOUT_AMOUNT}} and {{UTR}}.

CTA Button Configuration

A Call-To-Action (CTA) URL button allows your customers to seamlessly share a customized message provided by your brand with a single tap. This is applicable to all templates in the library. When creating templates in your WhatsApp provider (e.g., Meta, Pragma), configure a URL Button:
  • Button Text: Share on WhatsApp (or similar)
  • Base URL: https://server.referbro.com/whatsapp/share?referralCode=
  • URL Variable (e.g., {{1}}): This parameter needs to be mapped like button.url.0.1 in your JSON parameter mapping, using {{REFERRAL_CODE}} (and optionally &source=...).
The exact parameter mapping format changes based on your specific WhatsApp provider (e.g., Meta vs. Pragma). Please check your provider’s setup documentation on how to correctly map button URL fields in your JSON payload.

Tips for Writing Templates

  • Do not start or end with a variable — Avoid placeholders like {{1}} at the beginning or end of text; keep clear context before and after each variable.
  • Number variables sequentially — Always use placeholders in chronological order ({{1}}, then {{2}}, then {{3}}, etc.). Never use {{2}} before {{1}}.
  • Separate nearby variables — Do not place placeholders back-to-back (for example, {{1}} {{2}}). Add words or punctuation between them so intent is clear.
  • Body length limit: 1,024 characters max — Keep message bodies within Meta’s limit to avoid approval issues.
  • Header length limit: 60 characters max — Keep headers concise and compliant.
  • Button length limit: 25 characters per button — Keep CTA labels short and readable.
  • Use emojis sparingly — 1–2 per message adds personality. More than that looks spammy.
  • Include a clear CTA — Every message should end with a link or button to take action.
  • Personalize with {{FIRST_NAME}} — Messages with the customer’s name have significantly higher engagement.
  • Track sources with &source= — Append &source=touchpoint_name to your referral links to see which messages drive the most conversions in Analytics.
For faster setup, paste your approved template text and Referbro placeholder docs into ChatGPT (or any AI agent) and ask it to generate the full Referbro parameter mapping JSON. Review the output once before saving in WhatsApp Settings.
