WhatsApp blasting

Last updated

Reach customers on WhatsApp with two options under Blasting:

  • WhatsApp Business App — for the standard WhatsApp Business setup. Write a free-form message, attach media if you like, and messages go out gradually (drip sending) to keep your number healthy.
  • WhatsApp API (WABA) — for the official WhatsApp Business Platform. Select an approved WhatsApp Template and its language; any image or document in the template is delivered with it.

For both, pick the audience by customer label and set the scheduled time for the send.

WhatsApp requires pre-approved templates for proactive (outbound) messages on the official API, so prepare your templates first.

Tip: your AI agent can prepare a WhatsApp blasting draft for you to review and send — see Prepare a WhatsApp blasting with AI.
