Create a wa.me link with a prefilled message. Share on your store, bio, or ads so customers message you instantly.
WhatsApp supports a click-to-chat link in the format wa.me/<number>, where the number is your phone in international format (91 followed by the 10-digit number, no plus or spaces). You can add a prefilled message using ?text=, which opens a chat with that message already typed. This tool builds and encodes the link for you so customers tap once and reach you on WhatsApp - handy for Instagram bios, Google listings, catalogues, and order buttons.
A shop with number 9876543210 and a prefilled message 'Hi, I want to order from Sri Balaji Stores' produces https://wa.me/919876543210?text=Hi%2C%20I%20want%20to%20order%20from%20Sri%20Balaji%20Stores. Putting this link in the Instagram bio lets a customer tap it and land in a ready-to-send chat, skipping the step of saving your number.
No. The wa.me link works with both a regular WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business number. WhatsApp Business just adds features like catalogues, quick replies, and a business profile, which are useful for shops.
Use country code plus number with no plus sign, spaces, or leading zero. For India that is 91 followed by the 10-digit mobile, for example 919876543210.
Yes. The prefilled text is only a starting draft; the customer can change it or delete it before sending. It simply saves them typing and tells you where the lead came from.
Common high-traffic spots are your Instagram and Facebook bio, Google Business Profile, website order button, printed catalogue, and QR codes on packaging or the shop counter, so customers can reach you in one tap.
Commmerce integrates WhatsApp Business API for invoices, order updates, and campaigns.
