What is the WhatsApp carousel?
The WhatsApp carousel is a template with multiple cards side by side. Each card has an image, short text, and a button. It is the ideal format for new-arrival campaigns, collections, and product lists.Before you start
- The template must use the Marketing category.
- Meta requires 2 to 10 cards.
- Every card must use the same structure: image, text, and one button.
- The template goes through Meta review, which can take up to 24 hours.
- The number of cards is fixed in the template. For a different number of cards, create another template.
How to create the template
- In the dashboard, open Official WhatsApp Campaigns and click Create Campaign.
- In the 1. Template step, fill in the main message body shown above the cards.
- Turn on the Card carousel block.
- Add the cards. For each card, upload an image, write short text, and configure the button.
- To save time, click Fill with products and choose products from your catalog. Bevits fills in the image, name, price, and link.
- Review the preview and click Send for WhatsApp review.
The card button can be a link or a quick reply. If the link contains a variable, it must be at the end of the URL.
How to use it in a campaign
- Create a WhatsApp campaign and, in the 1. Template step, select the approved template.
- In the 2. Content step, review the carousel preview.
- To use different products in this campaign, click Fill cards with products and select one product for each card.
- Continue to the audience, choose the sender, and send.
Products side by side in email
The same applies to email: in the product block, turn on Keep columns side by side on mobile so the 3 columns do not stack on mobile.Limitations
- Templates created outside the Bevits editor must be reopened and saved in the editor before being used in a campaign.
- Product images that cannot be downloaded automatically must be uploaded manually in the card.
- Approval and content rules are defined by Meta.
