Supported Message Types
In today's era of diverse communication, interactions between businesses and customers are no longer confined to a single platform. Each channel has its own message formats and features, creating more varied and personalized customer experiences. To help businesses better understand these communication tools, we have compiled the types of messages supported by mainstream communication platforms such as instant messaging, LINE, Facebook, Instagram, and others. The table below details each platform's support for message types like "buttons," "quick replies," "carousel," and "image carousel," giving you a clear overview to help engage with customers more effectively.
