Sending Bulk WhatsApp Messages Using Advanced Sort

Use the Advanced SORT feature in BETA to filter your audience and send bulk WhatsApp templated messages to targeted groups of pass holders or climbers.

Your Responsibility — Read Before Using This Feature
Sending bulk messages to contacts carries legal obligations. Before using this feature, you must ensure your use complies with all applicable communication laws in your region.

BETA and its operators are not responsible for how you use this feature. You are solely liable for ensuring your communications are lawful, consensual, and compliant. If you are unsure whether you have the right to contact a person, do not send.

⤷ Step 2: Create Your WhatsApp Message Template

WhatsApp templates are not created inside BETA. They are created and managed through the WhatsApp Business Platform (Meta), and must be approved by Meta before you can use them.

To create a template:

1. Log in to your Meta Business Suite or WhatsApp Business Manager account.

2. Navigate to WhatsApp Manager » Message Templates.

3. Build your message using text and supported variables (see below).

4. Submit your template for Meta's approval.

5. Once approved, copy the Template ID — you will need this in the next step.

› Supported Template Variables

BETA supports the following dynamic variables in your WhatsApp templates. These are automatically replaced with the correct values when the message is sent.

Templates must comply with WhatsApp's message template guidelines. Meta will reject templates that violate their policies.

Approval can take up to 24 hours.

Step 3: Enter the Template ID in BETA and Send

Once your audience is filtered and your template is approved:

1. With your Advanced Sort filter applied, open the bulk action options.

2. Select Send WhatsApp Templated Message.

3. Enter your WhatsApp Template ID in the field provided.

4. Review the recipient count carefully before proceeding.

5. Click Submit to send.

Sending cannot be undone.

Double-check your audience filter and template ID before clicking Submit. Sending to the wrong audience or with the wrong template may violate your communication policy and could have legal consequences.
