Before sharing your link on WhatsApp
WhatsApp is where people ask questions, compare options and decide to buy. Make sure your page answers what they usually ask in chat: what you sell, prices or starting prices, delivery or location, opening hours, photos, reviews and the best button to contact you or order by WhatsApp. Our link in bio with WhatsApp page shows how to set it up.

Use your link with WhatsApp catalogs, quick replies and automatic messages
With WhatsApp Business, your link can help at every step of a sale. Put it in your greeting message for new customers, in quick replies for repeated questions, in your away message and next to your catalog. That way people see products, prices, reviews, delivery areas and payment instructions without asking for every detail one by one. If you need a product list with photos and prices, add a digital catalog to your page.
How to add a "Share on WhatsApp" link to your website
If you want visitors to send one of your pages to their friends, use WhatsApp's share link: https://wa.me/?text= followed by your message and the page address, URL-encoded. Put it behind a "Share on WhatsApp" button. Tapping it opens WhatsApp with the text ready, and the person only picks a chat.
Example messages for your link on WhatsApp
Match the message to the action you want: See the full menu and order by WhatsApp. Open the catalog with prices. Choose your service and book here. Check delivery areas before ordering. See photos and reviews before sending a message.
Common mistakes when sharing a link on WhatsApp
