Messenger reminders - the channel PH parents actually read

(1) Page Send API: legit Meta-approved auto-send through your franchise's Facebook Page. (2) Personal-account browser automation (opt-in, TOS risk - we warn you). (3) Click-to-open deep link: safest fallback, generates an m.me/<page> URL the owner clicks + paste manually.

Configure your Facebook Page Access Token in Settings. When a parent has messaged your Page at least once (so we have their PSID), reminders dispatch automatically - tagged ACCOUNT_UPDATE to bypass the 24-hour window. You can verify the token with a one-click probe before going live.

Each parent can have their own Messenger handle on file. When set, reminders deep-link straight to that specific parent's thread. When empty, falls back to your franchise's Page. Either way the link opens m.me, not your timeline.

Pre-baked templates for invoice-issued, payment-received, and overdue-reminder. Placeholders {parent_name}, {student_name}, {invoice_no}, {period}, {total}, {balance}, {due_date}, {center_name} get filled in per-recipient before sending.

{sibling_names} expands to 'Alina, Melchor, Sophia' for parents with multiple kids. {sibling_count} gives the number. So you don't send three separate reminders to the same mom.

Every send is logged with channel, recipient, body, status, timestamp. Filter by 'sent / failed / skipped'. Audit trail for the 'I never got that reminder' parent.

If a parent doesn't use Messenger, you can configure Semaphore SMS as a per-row override. Bring your own API key, pay Semaphore directly. We don't mark up SMS pricing.
