Announcing Twilio Support for Meta’s WhatsApp Marketing Messages Lite API on Private Beta

Twilio now supports Meta’s WhatsApp Marketing Messages Lite (MM Lite) API, giving businesses a more reliable and efficient way to deliver high-volume WhatsApp marketing campaigns. MM Lite is engineered to improve message deliverability, reduce delivery errors, and leverage Meta’s latest optimizations for marketing messaging, all managed seamlessly from the Twilio platform

Why MM Lite matters

Meta’s MM Lite API is purpose-built for high-volume WhatsApp marketing. It is engineered to improve delivery rates, increase click-throughs, and help businesses reach their audiences with greater consistency. 

Product highlights

  • Optimized delivery: MM Lite uses Meta’s infrastructure to increase message delivery, reads, and clicks, while reducing “message not delivered” errors. 

  • Time-to-Live (TTL): Control how long messages remain active, giving more flexibility and precision in campaign timing. 

  • ROI tracking: Measure campaign effectiveness by tracking user actions after a message click, so you can prove real business impact. 

  • No endpoint changes: Keep your existing Twilio endpoints – MM Lite is managed internally, requiring no integration changes on your end. 

  • Compliance and onboarding: Accept the new MM Lite Terms of Service to enable access. For OBO accounts, Twilio will manage the migration to the WAB Sharing Model during rollout.
