How it works

Set it once. FlareSend sends later.

Pick a time zone-aware send time in the dashboard or API. Perfect for Africa business hours and quiet-hour policies.

Schedule one-off or campaign messages
Reduce missed appointments with reminders
Dashboard UI plus API for developers
Cancel or update before send time
Pairs with bulk messaging workflows

How FlareSend connects: You link your own WhatsApp number by scanning a QR code, then call a simple REST API. Setup is fast and does not require Meta Cloud API business verification. For very large official-template campaigns, Meta’s Cloud API may still be a better fit — see the comparison.

Schedule via dashboard or API

// Schedule from the FlareSend dashboard, or queue sends in your app.
// Live send uses the same /send-message body shape:
curl -X POST https://api.flaresend.com/send-message \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_INSTANCE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "recipients": ["2547xxxxxxx"],
    "type": "text",
    "text": "Reminder: your appointment is tomorrow at 10:00."
  }'
