After a campaign is sent, StoreTalk shows you exactly what happened to every message. Use the results page to measure reach and act on failures.

What is a good read rate?

WhatsApp campaigns typically achieve 60–80% read rates — much higher than email. If your read rate is below 40%, review your template text or reconsider which audience segment you are targeting.
A “Read” does not mean the customer replied. If you want responses, end your template message with a clear call to action — for example: “Reply YES to confirm your order.”

Fix failed messages

1

Open the campaign

Navigate to the campaign and scroll down to the recipient table.
2

Filter by Failed

Use the status filter to show only failed messages.
3

Check the numbers

Are they valid Indian mobile numbers? A valid number starts with +91 followed by 10 digits.
4

Clean your list

Remove invalid numbers from your contacts to keep your audience list accurate.
5

Contact support if needed

If many numbers failed at the same time, contact StoreTalk support — it may be a delivery issue on our end.
A small number of failures in any campaign is normal. Numbers that fail consistently should be removed from your contacts so they do not affect future campaign stats.
