About Interactive card messages for chat
Interactive card messages for chat is a feature and component within CometChat's UI Kit designed to convert standard, plain text chat messages into rich, native interactive experiences. Instead of redirecting users to external web pages or modal forms, developers and designers can embed functional UI elements directly into the chat stream.
Using this tool, teams can create tailored interactive elements such as booking confirmations, approval requests, appointment cards, payment prompts, and interactive decision prompts directly inside their application's chat UI. Content can be visually designed using the Card Builder or programmatically generated and dispatched via CometChat's API.
Once dispatched, CometChat's UI Kit handles rendering the cards automatically across your application. Every button click or tap on these cards is routed directly back to your backend code, giving developers full control over business logic and workflow handling without the burden of building custom interactive message UIs from scratch.
