Carousel, catalogue and coupon templates, sent in bulk
A plain text blast gets skimmed. A swipeable row of products, a coupon with a live countdown, or a browsable catalogue gets tapped. All four formats send at campaign scale here.
Included in the platform licence. Not a paid add-on.
What is a WhatsApp carousel template?
WhatsApp supports interactive marketing template formats beyond plain text: carousel (up to ten swipeable cards, each with its own image and buttons), catalogue and multi-product messages (products pulled from a linked Meta catalogue), and limited-time-offer templates (a coupon code with a visible expiry countdown). WappBlaster creates all of these and sends them as bulk campaigns rather than one at a time.

Capabilities
What you get
Everything here is documented and shipping today, not on a roadmap.
Carousel marketing templates
One message, up to ten cards the customer swipes through, each with its own image, headline and call-to-action button. Ideal when one message has to cover a range rather than a single product.
Limited-time offer templates
A coupon code with an expiry that WhatsApp renders as a live countdown, plus a copy-code button. The urgency is native to the message rather than something you have to write.
Catalogue templates
Opens your linked Meta catalogue inside the chat, so the customer browses the full range without a website visit.
Multi-product messages
Pick a specific subset of catalogue items, up to 30 across sections, so a campaign shows the right ten products rather than everything.
Dynamic website buttons
A button whose URL is completed per recipient, so the link lands on their order, their booking or their city’s page.
Templates written by AI
Generate a template draft from a plain description, then edit before submitting it to Meta for approval.

Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about WhatsApp carousel template.
How many cards can a WhatsApp carousel template have?
Up to ten. Every card carries its own media, body text and buttons, and all cards in a carousel must use the same button layout.
Link to this answerDo carousel and catalogue templates need Meta approval?
Yes, like any template. Marketing templates are reviewed before first use; once approved you can send them in campaigns without re-submitting.
Link to this answerWhat is the difference between a catalogue template and a multi-product message?
A catalogue template opens your whole linked catalogue. A multi-product message shows a chosen subset, up to 30 items grouped into sections, which is usually the better campaign format because it is curated.
Link to this answerDo I need a Meta catalogue to use these?
Only for catalogue and multi-product formats. Carousel and limited-time-offer templates work from your own images and copy with no catalogue attached.
Link to this answerCan coupon codes be different per customer?
The code sits in the template, so one campaign carries one code. For per-customer codes, send the code as a variable in a standard template or hand it out through a bot flow.
