The number people should message. It never leaves your browser.

Enter a number and your link and QR code appear here.

Messages arriving at 11 pm?

A link gets people talking to you. A WhatsApp bot answers them when nobody is at the counter, shares your prices and books the slot. See what we build and what Meta charges per message.

Where to put it

  • Instagram bio: Add it as a link in your profile, so a tap opens a chat instead of a DM inbox you check twice a day.
  • Google Business Profile: Put it in the website or booking field if you have no site yet. People searching nearby can message you in one tap.
  • Shop counter and visiting cards: Print the QR code. A customer scans it and the chat opens with your message already typed.
  • Ads: Use it as the button link on a Facebook or Instagram post. For paid ads, Meta's own Click to WhatsApp format also gives you free messages for a few days.
  • Email signature and invoices: One line under your name: "Questions? WhatsApp us" with the link.

Why add a first message

A ready message tells you where the person came from. Use a different one for each place, such as "Hi, I saw your Instagram" in the bio link and "Hi, I scanned the QR at the shop" on the counter. When the chats come in, you know which place is working, without any tracking tool.

Keep it short and in the words your customers use. They can edit it before sending. For ready wording, pick one of our WhatsApp message templates.

Questions

Is this WhatsApp link generator free?

Yes. There is no sign-up and no limit. The link and QR code are made in your browser, and we never see the number or the message.

Does the link work with the WhatsApp Business app?

Yes. A wa.me link opens a chat with any WhatsApp number, on the normal app or the Business app. The person needs WhatsApp on their phone, or WhatsApp Web on a computer.

Does a wa.me link expire?

No. The link works as long as the number is on WhatsApp. If you change the message, make a new link and a new QR code, because a printed code cannot be edited.

Why does my number show an error?

An Indian mobile number has 10 digits and starts with 6, 7, 8 or 9. Leave out the +91 and any leading 0, or pick the country code from the list and type the rest. Spaces and dashes are removed for you.

Can the chat reply by itself when we are closed?

The link only opens the chat. The free WhatsApp Business app can send a fixed away message. A bot on the WhatsApp Business API can answer questions, share prices and book slots at any hour. That is what we build.

Want the chat to answer itself?

Tell us what customers ask you on WhatsApp. We will say on a free call whether a bot is worth it for you, or tell you to keep the free app.
