WhatsApp for Business

Frequently asked questions about WhatsApp for Business.

WhatsApp is the most popular messaging channel and has two billion users worldwide. Every day, users send about 65 billion messages! WhatsApp for Business is the business extension. It brings the convenience and functionalities of personal messaging to customer communication. Today, more than five million companies use the platform.

WhatsApp for Business is a cost-effective alternative to SMS services because it uses the Internet. Combine it with other contact channels and you have an indispensable element in your omnichannel strategy.

Personalization is the keyword in the modern customer experience. With WhatsApp for Business you end up in the pocket of your customers and contact is easily made. The possibilities of the platform give you a lot of space. For example, you can create and send ‘how-to’ videos or just quickly start a video call. Since you are in your customer’s preferred channel, the turnaround time is a lot faster. By always responding quickly and personally to questions, you become a reliable source on which customers can rely. And when they need a little more from you, you’re the first to text them.

Do you remember when we texted? That you were only allowed to use a limited number of characters (and then had no more room for an important addition)? WhatsApp has overtaken texting very quickly: because of the cost (Byeeee 10 cents per text!), speed and the possibility to make contact all over the world. WhatsApp for Business and SMS work in the same way, but there are a few differences:

  • You can only receive a text message on your mobile phone, but with the arrival of WhatsApp Web you can receive apps on any device with an internet connection.
  • WhatsApp for Business allows you to chat with people all over the world for free, but texting abroad still costs a lot of money.
  • You can send a text message to anyone, but a WhatsApp message only to people with a WhatsApp account.

When we talk about WhatsApp Business, it is important to know that there is also an API. The WhatsApp Business App is built for small business owners, while the API is built for businesses with large numbers of customer contacts.
