Getting your templates approved.

Three things that decide the category, and the price.

  1. Bookings and orders are utility.

    Confirmations, “ready for pickup” and “out for delivery” follow up on something the guest did.

  2. Feedback must name the visit.

    Meta doesn’t accept a general “rate us” as utility. Mention the visit or the order.

  3. Points: balance yes, nudge no.

    A points balance after a visit is an account update. “Redeem now for a free dessert” is marketing.
