Smart Menu in ReplyRush (Interactive DM Menu Guide)

Smart Menu in ReplyRush

The Smart Menu (also known as the Persistent Menu) allows you to create a visible, clickable menu inside your Instagram or Facebook Messenger chat window. This menu helps customers quickly access key information about your business — such as store hours, locations, product lists, offers, or support links — without needing to type a message.

By providing easy access to important options, the Smart Menu can reduce repetitive support queries by up to 58% and improve customer satisfaction.

 

How the Smart Menu Works

  • The menu is always visible in a user’s conversation with your business.

  • You can add up to 10 menu items, each with a title and an Auto DM response.

  • When a user clicks a menu item:

    • A postback notification is triggered.

    • The selected DM message is sent instantly.

    • Your standard 24-hour messaging window with the user starts, allowing you to continue the conversation.

 

Limitations

  • The menu is not updated in real time for users who already have an active chat.

  • To ensure a consistent experience, it’s best to add all Smart Menu options at once before starting messaging campaigns.
