WhatsApp Business (WABA)

Use your WhatsApp Business account to enable seamless transactions through the PayChat service, specifically intended for corporate-type merchants.

Features and Benefits

Stronger Branding & Trust

Customers interact directly with the merchant’s official business name and logo, rather than a third-party account. This boosts credibility and builds trust during the purchase process.

💚 Customer Loyalty & Relationship Building

Using their own WhatsApp number allows merchants to build long-term relationships with customers, enabling easier follow-ups, repeat orders, and direct feedback.

🎯 More Effective Retargeting

Merchants can re-engage past customers by using WhatsApp broadcasts for promotions, flash deals, payment reminders, or product launches.

Messages received via the merchant’s WhatsApp number can be easily integrated into CRM systems, sales dashboards, or order tracking tools for better customer and operations management.
