What is Recurring Notifications?
Recurring Notifications is a powerful initiated messaging capability on the messenger platform that makes a huge breakthrough to the 24-hour window restrictions among broadcasting. After customers have opted in, you can send messages actively to customers on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. This not only helps drive continuous engagement, but also efficiently increases customer retention rate and boost sales.

- After entering the topic-setting page, look at the upper part of the page
- Feel free to enter any topic names as this is only to help you distinguish different topics and it will not be seen by customers
- Upload an image and type in your title for this opt-in request message
Tips: The content and words on the button are by default officially set be Meta, thus may not be changed.
Tips: The picture displayed in the preview window on the right-hand side shows how the message will look like afterwards.
Tips: Click on the “Preview in Messenger” button underneath the preview window to receive the opt-in request by yourself.
- You may also add tags to the opt-in request block and set up success message to make the conversation more complete
Tips: A “Success message” is a block that will be triggered after customers have opted in. You can consider it to be a follow up message to reconfirm the subscription with the customers and can provide buttons to facilitate continuous conversations.

Step 2. Send out opt-in request and obtain opt-in permissions from customers
There are three ways for CHATISFY’s users to send out opt-in requests from the chatbot backstage.
A. Via Post reply
- Proceed to Post reply page and create a new Post reply
- Select “Recurring notifications” for auto message to let the system send out opt-in request to the customers automatically after they have commented under the target post (Every other setting remains the same as before)
B. Via m.me link
- Click on the preview icon on each topic in the recurring notifications page, copy the link shown in the box and send the link directly to the customers or generate a QR code for offline customers to scan.
C. Via Auto-reply
- Add a “Recurring notifications” card in the block and draft your message as usual in the Auto-reply setting page.
- Select a topic that you have created in advance and click “Confirm”
- Click the “Save” icon before leaving the page
- After creating the block with the opt-in request, you may link the block to any conversations by putting it in buttons. Together with your appealing content, it can boost customers’ interest to click, receive the opt-in request and then subscribe. It works just like all the other blocks and therefore provides users with larger flexibility to integrate recurring notifications into normal conversation flow.
