Good to know
- Message steps are plain text.
- Numbers need a country code in E.164 format.
- A newly connected account may begin with gradual activity before ramping up.
- Sending waits for the account to finish its initial sync before it's ready.
- WhatsApp is a separate channel add-on at $10 per month, billed on top of your plan.
Frequently asked questions
Can I send rich media or only text?
- Message steps are plain text.
Do I need a business WhatsApp number?
- You link the WhatsApp account on your phone by QR code, the same way you'd add a linked device.
What happens with a brand-new WhatsApp account?
- A new account may begin with gradual activity, and sending waits for the account to be ready.
How much does the WhatsApp add-on cost?
- WhatsApp is a paid add-on at $10 per month. LinkedIn and Telegram are separate channel add-ons at $10 per month each, so activating more than one channel means paying for each one.
