WhatsApp Business API
WhatsApp Message Scheduler for Business
Write a message now, choose when it goes out, and let Liliya send it for you — one reminder or a personalised broadcast to thousands, delivered on the official WhatsApp Business API whether your phone is on or not.
Why WhatsApp's built-in scheduling isn't enough for a business
WhatsApp's own apps give you, at best, a one-off "schedule send" for a single personal chat — tied to your phone, limited to a short window ahead, and with no record of whether it landed. That is fine for a birthday message. It does not help when you need to send an appointment reminder to 40 clients tomorrow morning, run a weekly offer, or nudge every unpaid invoice on its due date.
A business scheduler runs on the official WhatsApp Business API, so messages send from the cloud on time, every time, personalised per recipient, with delivery and read reports you can check afterwards.
What you can schedule with Liliya
One-off reminders
Appointment, delivery, event and renewal reminders set to send at a specific date and time.
Recurring messages
Weekly offers, monthly statements or payment-due nudges that repeat automatically.
Campaign send-time
Pick the hour your broadcast actually reaches people — early morning, lunch, or post-work.
Drip sequences
A planned series after signup or purchase — welcome, how-to, offer — spaced days apart.
Personalised bulk sends
One scheduled message with name, order number or due date filled in per contact.
Time-zone aware delivery
Schedule by the recipient's local time so nothing arrives at 3 a.m.

Compose the message and drop in fields like {name} or {order_id}; approve it as a template if required.
-
3
Set the date and time
Choose a one-off slot, a recurring pattern, or delivery in each contact's local time.

Liliya sends and reports back
Messages go out from the WhatsApp Business API on schedule, and you get delivery, read and reply stats.
Scheduled messages vs bulk broadcasts
They overlap but are not the same. A bulk WhatsApp broadcast is about reaching a large opted-in list with one message and tracking the results. Scheduling is about timing — deciding in advance when that broadcast, or a single reminder, actually goes out. In Liliya the two work together: build the broadcast, then schedule it, once or on repeat. Replies land in your shared team inbox so a person can follow up.
If you only need canned first replies rather than scheduled outbound messages, see our WhatsApp auto-reply templates instead.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you schedule a WhatsApp message in advance?
Yes. With Liliya you write the message, pick a future date and time, and the message is sent automatically from the official WhatsApp Business API at that moment — your phone does not need to be on or online.
Does WhatsApp have a built-in message scheduler?
WhatsApp's own apps offer, at most, a basic one-off "schedule send" for a single personal chat, capped at a short window and dependent on your phone. There is no built-in way to schedule the same message to a segmented list, run recurring reminders, or get delivery reports. That is what a business scheduler on the WhatsApp Business API is for.
Can I schedule WhatsApp messages to many people at once?
Yes. Upload or segment your opted-in contact list, write one message with personalisation fields such as name or order number, set the send time, and Liliya delivers it to everyone on schedule using Meta-approved templates.
Do scheduled WhatsApp messages need the WhatsApp Business API?
For anything beyond a single personal reminder — scheduled campaigns, recurring reminders, personalised bulk sends, delivery tracking — yes. Liliya connects your existing WhatsApp business number to the official API and adds the scheduling layer on top.
Can I schedule recurring WhatsApp reminders?
Yes. You can set messages to repeat — for example a weekly offer, a monthly statement reminder, or a payment-due nudge — and Liliya sends each occurrence automatically without you rebuilding the campaign each time.
