What Kind of WhatsApp Account Can Be Integrated with Willdesk?
What Kind of WhatsApp Account Can Be Integrated with Willdesk?

WhatsApp, as the most downloaded social networking application globally, offers 3 types of accounts:

1. WhatsApp Personal Account

2. WhatsApp Business Account

3. WhatsApp Business API Account


Each type of account serves different purposes and caters to specific user needs. Below is a detailed comparison to help you understand their differences:

1. WhatsApp Personal Account

This is the original version of WhatsApp, primarily designed for individual users to facilitate personal communication and daily interactions.


2. WhatsApp Business Account

Targeted at small and medium-sized enterprises, this account type provides tools for business communication, including catalog sharing and automated replies. It is ideal for businesses looking to establish a professional presence and engage directly with customers.


3. WhatsApp Business API Account

An advanced version designed for larger enterprises, the API account offers enhanced commercial capabilities, such as:

  • Bulk messaging for official communications.
  • Integration with third-party platforms for streamlined customer service and management.
  • Scalability to handle high volumes of customer interactions.

Unlike the other two account types, WhatsApp Business API Accounts:

  • Cannot be accessed via mobile devices.
  • Require setup and management through Meta's Business Manager.
  • Facilitate messaging exclusively through third-party platforms.




Why does Willdesk only support WhatsApp Business API Accounts?

Willdesk integrates exclusively with WhatsApp Business API Accounts because of their advanced features and compatibility with third-party platforms. This enables businesses to:

  • Manage customer interactions efficiently.
  • Leverage automation and integration for better scalability.

If your phone number is currently registered as a Personal Account or Business Account, you must deactivate the existing account before registering for a WhatsApp Business API Account to enable integration with Willdesk.
