What it is

Business messaging, the official way.

The WhatsApp Business API is Meta's official channel for businesses to message customers at scale — not the regular app on a single phone. Your number gets verified, a green business tick, approved templates, and the ability for a whole team to send and reply from one workspace.

01

Official & verified

A verified business number and display name, approved by Meta — trusted, not flagged as spam.

02

Built for scale

Reach thousands of opted-in customers with approved templates — far beyond the limits of the regular app.

03

A team, not a phone

Your whole team sends and replies from one shared inbox — no single device, no shared password.

How it works

From number to first campaign in days.

1

Connect your number

Pick a number not on the regular WhatsApp app. Mersal guides you through Meta verification and the green tick.

2

Get templates approved

Create message templates for your campaigns and notifications. Meta reviews and approves them — usually fast.

3

Launch & automate

Send campaigns to opted-in audiences and let chatbots and automations handle the routine replies.

4

Manage every reply

Customer responses land in one shared inbox with ownership, quick replies and reporting.

Message types

Three ways to start a conversation.

Conversations you start use an approved template. Pricing depends on the template category.

Marketing

Promotions & campaigns

Offers, launches, newsletters and re-engagement to customers who opted in.

“25% off this week — shop your favourites before Sunday.”
Utility

Updates & notifications

Order, shipping, booking and account updates tied to a specific action.

“Your order #1842 is confirmed and out for delivery today.”
Authentication

One-time passwords

Secure login codes and verification, delivered reliably in seconds.

“Your verification code is 4827. It expires in 5 minutes.”

When a customer messages you, a 24-hour customer service window opens — your agents and chatbots can reply free-form, no template required. Each reply is a service message, charged per message at the utility rate.

Capabilities

Everything you need around the API.

Templates
