How to Use the WhatsApp Link Generator
A WhatsApp link (also known as a wa.me link or click-to-chat) allows your customers to start a direct conversation with you without needing to save your phone number. It's the fastest way to connect your business with potential customers from any digital channel.
Step-by-step guide to generate your link
- Select your country code from the dropdown menu. You can search for your country by name.
- Enter your phone number without the leading zero, dashes, or spaces. Example: if your number is 0555 123 4567, type
5551234567. - Write a pre-filled message (optional). This text will appear pre-filled when the customer opens the link. Great for knowing where each contact comes from.
- Click "Generate Link" and you'll get your URL ready to share plus a downloadable QR code.
Where to use your WhatsApp link
- Your website: as a floating button or on the contact page.
- Social media: in your Instagram bio, Facebook posts, YouTube description.
- Google My Business: in the profile link section.
- Email marketing: as a CTA in newsletters and email signatures.
- Printed materials: the QR code on business cards, menus, posters, and flyers.
Benefits for your business
Using a WhatsApp link with a pre-filled message lets you quickly identify the source of each lead. You can create different links for each channel (one for Instagram, another for your website, another for Google Ads) and measure which channel drives the most conversations. All at no extra cost.
