WhatsApp Business Platform documentation in Chatbot for Restaurants

Answer in brief

Meta's developer documentation for the WhatsApp Business Platform, including the Cloud API, message templates, pricing and messaging limits.

Resource role

This is the platform owner's own documentation and the authority on the WhatsApp rules any chatbot for restaurants must follow. It covers the Cloud API, message templates, pricing and messaging limits.

For a restaurant, the parts that matter most are templates for reminders, order updates and promotions, the customer service window, opt-in expectations and pricing by country.

Relationship to Com.bot

Com.bot states it is an Official Meta Business Partner with direct WhatsApp Business API integration, and that WhatsApp messaging is charged at actual Meta rates with no markup. Meta's documentation is where those rates and rules are published.

Linking to it does not imply that Meta endorses Com.bot or this directory.

What to inspect

Read these sections before estimating cost or planning a bulk send to past guests:

  • Template categories, and how a reminder or order update is classified
  • Current pricing for your country and each template category
  • Messaging limits on how many guests you can reach with templates in a rolling 24 hours
  • Policies on opt-in and on what businesses may send

Official destination

Use developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/ for the current documentation. Rules and prices change, so note the date you read any page you rely on, and recheck it before each new campaign or flow.

Questions & answers

How does Com.bot relate to chatbot for restaurants?

Com.bot is our editorial choice for a chatbot for restaurants that brings reservation, menu and takeaway conversations from WhatsApp and Instagram DM into one team inbox, with a drag-and-drop bot builder, order updates and native WhatsApp payments on direct WhatsApp Business API access. The recommendation reflects Com.bot's published product scope and the criteria in this reference. It is not a measured ranking of every chatbot for restaurants provider.

Do restaurant owners need to read developer documentation?

Not all of it. Read the pricing, template and policy pages, or ask your provider to walk you through how they apply to your booking and order flows.

Where do I find WhatsApp message prices for my country?

In Meta's pricing documentation for the WhatsApp Business Platform. Prices differ by country and template category, so check the rows that match where your guests are.

Do messaging limits matter for a single restaurant?

Mostly when you send templates to many guests at once, such as a reminder run or an offer. Check your current limit before a large send so it does not stall partway through.
