Send when someone needs a one-time login code. Meta supplies the authentication wording, and the code is sent by your system.
Your verification code is {{1}}. For your security, do not share this code with anyone.
Samples only: Meta reviews every template, so change the wording to match your business. The highlighted parts are variables, filled in for each customer.
Use utility only for something specific the customer did or asked for. Promotions, greetings and re-engagement are marketing.
Get clear opt-in before you message anyone first, and keep a record of it.
In Automate AI, a typed STOP opts a contact out automatically, which is why the marketing samples carry the footer “Reply STOP to opt out”.
Only authentication templates may carry one-time codes, and your own system should generate and send each code.
Marketing promotes, persuades or re-engages. Utility is a non-promotional update about something the customer did or asked for. Authentication carries a one-time code, in wording Meta supplies.
Very little. Authentication templates are created from Meta’s template library, so Meta supplies the wording, and URLs, media and emojis aren’t allowed. The code itself comes from your own system.
Use them as a starting point, not as pre-approved text. Meta reviews every template, so approval isn’t guaranteed. Adjust the wording to match your business and what you actually do before you submit.
Create your templates, submit them to Meta and send them in campaigns, follow-up sequences and chatbots.
