As the most mainstream communication platform overseas, WhatsApp is an essential channel for cross-border merchants and customers to communicate. Adding the WhatsApp button to the Facebook homepage not only allows customers to have a direct channel to contact the merchant, but also enhances the customer service experience and improves the brand image. This article uses a few simple steps to integrate the WhatsApp button on the Facebook homepage, allowing customers to contact you instantly with one click.

 

What is the WhatsApp Button?

The WhatsApp button is a convenient feature that can be integrated into your Facebook public page , allowing customers to start a WhatsApp conversation with you with one click. You can talk directly to customers without having to frequently switch between Facebook and WhatsApp platforms.

Link multiple WhatsApp accounts to your Facebook Page

In some cases, companies may face a large number of WhatsApp inquiries or have multiple employees who need to manage the same Facebook public page at the same time. In response to this need, Facebook provides a flexible feature that allows companies to link multiple WhatsApp accounts to their Facebook public pages.

Note: You can connect up to 50 WhatsApp accounts to Facebook, and only one of them can be used for the WhatsApp button.

 

 

How to effectively manage information from multiple channels?

In actual operation, whether it is processing Facebook public pages or WhatsApp messages, you need to open many web pages or even switch many accounts each time, which not only greatly reduces work efficiency, but also increases the risk of missing important information. Moreover, frequent login and exit of multiple accounts is likely to trigger the security mechanism, resulting in the adverse consequences of temporary or permanent account ban.
