How scheduling works

Write now, send at the right time

Scheduling a WhatsApp message with StuckChat is as simple as composing any message. Select the recipient (individual or a group from your contacts), write your message, and pick the date and time you want it delivered. StuckChat handles the rest — delivering exactly on schedule, even if your phone is off and your team is asleep.

Scheduled messages work for both individual contacts and broadcast campaigns. You can schedule a single follow-up for a specific lead, or schedule a broadcast campaign to go out to your entire contact list at 9am on Monday morning. The flexibility is complete.

Once scheduled, messages appear in your scheduling queue where you can preview, edit, or cancel them at any time before they're sent. You'll receive a confirmation notification once each scheduled message is delivered successfully.

Most valuable use cases

  • Flash sale announcements — schedule promotional messages to go at midnight when your sale starts
  • Appointment reminders — send reminders 24 hours and 1 hour before a customer's booking
  • Post-purchase follow-ups — check in 3 days after delivery to ask for feedback
  • Festival greetings — schedule Diwali, Eid, Christmas, and New Year messages in advance
  • Payment reminders — gently remind customers of pending invoices or EMI due dates
  • Re-engagement campaigns — reach out to leads that went quiet after 7 or 14 days
  • Product launch teasers — drip messages building excitement before a launch date

Recurring schedules

For messages that need to go out regularly — weekly newsletters, monthly billing summaries, or daily stock updates — StuckChat supports recurring schedules. Set the frequency once and the message sends automatically every day, week, or month until you pause or cancel it.

Best times to send in India

Based on data from thousands of WhatsApp campaigns sent through StuckChat, we've identified the highest-performing time windows for Indian audiences: Tuesday through Thursday between 9am and 11am, and Saturday evenings between 6pm and 8pm. Avoid Sunday mornings and Monday pre-10am. The scheduling feature makes it easy to always hit these optimal windows regardless of when you create the campaign.

Integration with broadcast campaigns

Scheduling works hand-in-hand with our Broadcast Campaigns feature. When you create a broadcast campaign, you can choose between sending immediately or scheduling it for a specific future date and time. This means you can plan an entire month of campaigns in one sitting and schedule them all at once.
