What is WhatsApp Business API?

WhatsApp Business API allows you to communicate with customers at scale with bots and advanced functions, such as message broadcast campaigns, links to websites, multiple logins, and many more.

Is WhatsApp Business API free?

No. Unlike WhatsApp Business App which is free, charges for official WhatsApp Business API accounts are based on the country code of the customer that your business is communicating with. However, unlike most providers, SleekFlow, is a WhatsApp BSP that offers the best pricing for WhatsApp messages. Rates for business-initiated and user-initiated conversations vary by country or region. You can refer to the pricing table in this blog: WhatsApp Business API pricing worldwide plus the new pricing model.

How to apply for WhatsApp Business API?

You can contact SleekFlow and a localized expert will be assigned to assist you. Alternatively, apply directly through WhatsApp. However, do note that the latter option requires more time, effort, and developer resources as compared to the former. Check out our guide on how to apply for WhatsApp Business API.

What's the difference between WhatsApp Business App and WhatsApp Business API?

Only official WhatsApp Business API accounts can be recognized and verified. A green tick will then be shown next to the business name on WhatsApp. It shows authority and prevents your business account from getting banned. WhatsApp Business API accounts also have access to more features, such as WhatsApp interactive messages, chat buttons, product catalogs, in-chat payment, and more.

An Integrated Platform to Engage Customers

Customer relationship is always the top priority for our education business, and we aim to reply to inquiries promptly. However, we usually receive messages from various channels and it is hard for our customer service colleagues to handle them. SleekFlow has helped solve this problem and increase our efficiency. Combining all the messaging platforms such as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and Instagram Messenger is powerful. It is also beneficial to add and assign different client service colleagues to handle various inquiries and requests. The mass message function also saves time for direct marketing.
