WhatsApp messages in Referbro are triggered at specific touchpoints in the customer journey. Each touchpoint maps to a template slot that you configure in WhatsApp Settings.

Touchpoint Overview

When adding a URL button to any of these templates, you can use the Referbro Share Button URL endpoint (/whatsapp/share) as the button destination. It resolves the campaign’s Share Message and opens WhatsApp with a pre-filled referral message. See Share Button URL for the full syntax and configuration.

1. Referral Invitation

Trigger: Customer submits their phone number in the Refer & Earn widget (homepage).
