Catalogue block (WhatsApp only)

This block in Verloop.io recipes allows businesses to showcase and sell products and services. And for customers, it’s easy to browse items and add them to a cart without leaving the chat. Businesses can showcase two types of messages: 

1. Multi-Product Messages: Messages containing a selection of up to 30 items from a business inventory.

2. Single Product Messages: Messages with a single product item from the business inventory. The product is displayed in a Product Detail Page (PDP) format.
