A catalogue plan before you open the app.
Add your collections and items, mark which photos are ready, and read a plain review of what is missing. Copy the result as text, and get a photo shot list for the items that still need a picture.
Your products and prices stay on this page. We never see them.
The tool
The starter rows are made up. Replace them with your own, or clear a row to leave it out.
Up to 8 collections and 120 items. Everything stays on this page.
Before you type it into WhatsApp.
Group the catalogue the way a customer shops
Collections are how people browse. Name them for the customer's question, such as Gifts, Under ₹500 or New this week, not for your own stock room.
Keep names short and make the description do the work
The name sits under a small photo, so it must fit. Put the size or quantity, what is included and how to order in the description, in one or two plain sentences.
Photograph in one sitting
Use the shot list and the photo rules, and take every item in a collection at the same angle and distance. A catalogue of matching photos looks like a shop, not a pile.
Type it in, then check it on another phone
Copy the plan as text and enter it in the app. Open the catalogue from a second phone as a customer would, and fix anything that is cut off or unclear.

About this tool.
Something we haven’t covered? Ask us.
What is a WhatsApp catalogue?
A list of your products or services inside WhatsApp Business. A customer can browse it from the chat without leaving WhatsApp, and you can send them one item or the whole catalogue.
Do I need the Business app?
Yes. The catalogue is a WhatsApp Business feature, and the ordinary WhatsApp app does not have it. If you do not see Catalogue under Tools, check that you are in the green WhatsApp Business app.
Does this tool connect to my WhatsApp?
No. It is a planning page. You write and review the catalogue here, copy it as text, and then type or paste it into the app yourself. Nothing you enter is sent anywhere.
Do I have to show prices?
No, a price is optional in the app. If you prefer to quote on request, say so in the description so customers do not have to ask. The review marks a missing price as a suggestion, not an error.
How many photos can an item have, and how long can a name be?
The limits belong to WhatsApp and they can change, so check the app when you add an item. This planner checks the things that matter on a phone: a short name that fits under the photo, a clear description, and a photo that is ready.
Can I list services, not only products?
Yes. The app describes the catalogue as a place to show products and services. Treat each service like an item: a short name, what is included, and how to book.
How do I share the catalogue?
From the catalogue screen in the app you can share the whole catalogue or a single item as a link. Put the catalogue link on your Google Business Profile, your Instagram bio and your printed material, with a QR code if you like.
Need a hand?
A catalogue is part of how a shop looks. We can design the product photography style, the signboard and the packaging so they read as one brand.
