Shopee greeting message templates

By Alva Chew 6 min read Updated November 11, 2026

A good Shopee greeting welcomes the buyer, names what they can ask, and keeps everything inside Shopee. Short is better. Ask what they need, then answer the product, size or delivery question straight away. Below are 10 templates to copy. AeroChat answers the question that follows from your product details, at any hour.

Shopee rules to know before you send

  • Replies count within 12 hours. Shopee’s chat response rate counts replies sent within 12 hours of the buyer’s latest message, over the last 30 days.
  • Auto-replies and broadcasts don’t count. Shopee leaves its own auto-replies and chat broadcasts out of the response rate. Messages you type and Message Shortcuts count.
  • Keep the buyer on Shopee. Shopee treats directing a buyer to continue outside Shopee as a chat violation. That includes external links, phone numbers, social media accounts and payment outside Shopee, and its chat blocks messages with contact or bank details. A link to a Shopee page is fine. None of the templates below use outside links.
  • Thresholds for the response rate differ by market and seller program. Check your Account Health page. See how to improve your Shopee chat response rate.

Shopee rules from the Shopee Seller Education Hub, checked 11 November 2026: Understanding Chat Response and Chat violations. Rules and thresholds differ by market, so check the Shopee seller site for yours.

  • Keep links to Shopee pages only.

Send these automatically with AeroChat

AeroChat answers buyers in Shopee chat when they write, from the product details, size charts and policies you give it. It replies in the buyer’s language and hands problems to your team with the conversation attached. Orders, payment and shipping for Shopee sales stay in Shopee, so AeroChat points buyers to their order page in the Shopee app. Save the ones you start yourself as Message Shortcuts in Shopee chat. Messages sent from shortcuts count toward your response rate.

Template What triggers it Filled from
Simple, follow, multilingual, brand store (1, 2, 8, 9) A buyer’s first message in a new chat. Your shop name and greeting wording.
Size help, compatibility (3, 4) The buyer asks about fit or a device model. Your size charts and compatibility lists.
Campaign, pre-order, gift (5, 7, 10) Dates or product types you set. Your campaign dates and product details.

Copy this into AeroChat

When a Shopee buyer starts a new chat, greet them in one line and ask what they need. If they ask about size, ask their height and weight and suggest a size from our size chart for that product. If they give a device model, check our compatibility list. Answer stock, delivery and return questions from our product details and policies. Only link to Shopee pages. Never share a phone number or a social account. Reply in the buyer’s language.

Add your size charts and policies to AeroChat before you paste it.
