How selling works
The catalog shortens the path from 'looking' to 'asking'.
- Customer browses the catalog and taps a product
- A product card opens in chat with a message button
- Customer asks about price, delivery, and stock in the same thread
- Order details land in the inbox with the contact record

Catalog rules and limits
Meta keeps the catalog simple by design.
- Product images, title, price, and description per item
- Categories keep the catalog browsable
- Prices are displayed in the catalog's currency
- Quality images convert; blurry product shots kill the tap-through
