What is WhatsApp Business For Inbound Messaging?
WhatsApp inbound messaging allows customers to initiate conversations with your business, creating a direct and convenient channel for support, questions, and real-time engagement.
You can manage incoming messages, assign chats to team members, and respond quickly with personalized or automated replies. This ensures faster response times, better customer experiences, and smoother communication at scale.

How Does WhatsApp Integration Work?
By integrating with the WhatsApp Business API, CloudTalk brings all your customer messages into one organized space, where your team can collaborate using a single business number. You can automate replies, manage chats efficiently, and keep full visibility.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about the product and billing.
What is the difference between WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business?
WhatsApp is the chatting solution most people are familiar with. Meanwhile, WhatsApp Business is a free service that gives users, like small local businesses, access to various marketing tools to answer questions, support customers, and take orders via chat.
What’s WhatsApp business?
WhatsApp Business is a free-to-use solution allowing users to communicate better with their customers. You can use the platform for alerts, notifications, and customer support. Notably, WhatsApp Business does not support messaging for marketing purposes. But with the CloudTalk integration, you can respond to inbound WhatsApp messages.
Why should I use WhatsApp instead of SMS?
Since SMS and WhatsApp messages aren’t mutually exclusive, the best marketing practice is to use them both. However, one advantage WhatsApp has over SMS is that instead of getting a message from a random number, your users will be instantly able to recognize your company via your WhatsApp Profile.
Can I send messages to my customers on WhatsApp?
Yes, you can send messages to your customers as long as they have initiated the conversation. Receiving a message opens a 24-hour support window, during which you can reply as often as needed to solve the customer’s question or problem.
