WhatsApp Business away message template for a long weekend

WhatsApp Business away message template for a long holiday weekend: says the team is off, when it is back and that the message has been received.

Message text

Hi! Our team is off for the long weekend and will be back on Tuesday, Sep 2, starting at 9 AM. Your message has been received and we will reply in the order messages came in. Enjoy the break too!

Fields to personalize

Replace the fields in braces with each customer's details. In the text above they show an example.

  • {{return_date}}example: Tuesday, Sep 2
  • {{opening_time}}example: 9 AM

Tips to use it well

Turn it on the day before the holiday and off on the day you return. Confirming the message was received reassures whoever wrote in.

This is a reply inside the conversation: it goes to someone who just messaged you, so it does not need template approval.
