WhatsApp Business Verified But Can't Send Messages in Voltade
You completed Meta Business Verification, but messages from Voltade still fail. Verification is a prerequisite, but several other pieces need to be in place before Voltade can actually send messages.
Updated
Run through these in order. Stop at the first one that applies.
1. Channel Connected?
- In Voltade, go to Settings > Channels > WhatsApp
- Does the channel show Connected?
- If Disconnected: see our reconnection guide
2. Display Name Approved?
- Check in WhatsApp Manager > Phone Numbers
- If pending: wait for the review. Meta does not publish how long a display name review takes. You can still receive messages.
3. Quality Rating OK?
- Check in WhatsApp Manager > Phone Numbers
- If Red or Yellow: see our quality rating guide
4. Message Templates Approved?
- Outside the 24-hour window, Voltade needs approved templates to send outbound messages
- Check in WhatsApp Manager > Message Templates
- If no templates: create one and wait for Meta's review, which Meta says can take up to 24 hours
5. Payment Method Set Up?
- Required for template messages and broadcasts
- Check in Meta Business Suite > Billing > Payment Methods
6. Correct WABA Linked?
- If you have multiple WhatsApp Business Accounts, verify the correct one is linked to your Voltade channel
- Check in Settings > Channels > WhatsApp > channel details
