WhatsApp Integration

How does WhatsApp ordering work?

When customers want to buy a product, they click the 'Enquire on WhatsApp' button. This opens WhatsApp with a pre-filled message containing product details, making it easy for them to start a conversation with you.

Do I need WhatsApp Business?

You can use regular WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business. However, we recommend WhatsApp Business as it offers better features for managing customer conversations.

Can I use multiple WhatsApp numbers?

Currently, each store is linked to one WhatsApp number. If you need multiple stores with different numbers, you can create separate accounts.

What if I don't reply to customers?

We recommend responding to customer enquiries as quickly as possible to maximize sales. Your customers will contact you directly on WhatsApp, so make sure your phone is accessible.

Payments

How do I receive payments?

We don't process payments. You arrange payment directly with your customers via WhatsApp. You can accept any method - UPI, bank transfer, cash on delivery, or any other method you prefer.

Do you charge any commission?

No! We don't charge any commission on your sales. Whatever you earn is 100% yours. This is one of our biggest advantages over other platforms.

Is there a payment gateway integration?

Currently, we focus on WhatsApp-based ordering without payment gateway integration. This keeps things simple and allows you to accept any payment method directly.
