Integration
WhatsApp Business Integration
In Singapore, a message sent on WhatsApp gets read. Confirmations, reminders, directions and forms go out during the call, and the customer can reply in the same thread.
What gets sent
- Booking confirmations with time, place and what to bring
- Location pins and parking instructions
- Appointment reminders before the day
- Forms, brochures and price lists you have approved
- Photo requests, where a job needs to be seen first
The Channel Your Customers Already Use
An email confirmation sits unread in a promotions folder. A WhatsApp message is usually opened within minutes. For appointment-based businesses that difference shows up directly in attendance.
The integration works alongside the call rather than replacing it. While the caller is still on the line, the confirmation arrives on their phone, which also gives them something to refer back to instead of ringing again to check the time.
Business messaging on WhatsApp operates under platform rules covering approved message templates and customer opt-in. We configure your messaging within those rules, and set out what they permit during scoping rather than after launch.
What It Delivers
Fewer forgotten appointments
A reminder that is actually read is the simplest available intervention against no-shows.
Fewer follow-up calls
Customers stop ringing back to check the time, address or what they need to bring.
Information arrives instantly
Brochures, price lists and forms are delivered during the conversation rather than promised for later.
Photos before the visit
Trades and servicing businesses can see the job in advance, which often turns two visits into one.
How It Is Set Up
Business account connected
Your WhatsApp Business presence is linked, with the display name and profile your customers will see.
Templates prepared
Confirmation, reminder and information messages are written and submitted for approval in advance.
Triggers defined
You decide which call outcomes send which message, and how far ahead reminders go out.
Replies routed
Customer responses reach your team or your shared inbox rather than disappearing into an unmonitored number.
Where Messaging Changes Outcomes
Dental practices
Pre-treatment instructions and reminders reduce the appointments that quietly do not happen.

Portfolio links and showroom directions arrive while the caller is still interested.

Single-location businesses usually run three or four message templates covering confirmation, reminder and directions, as described under small business deployments.
Networks maintain a shared template set with branch-specific details inserted automatically, covered under franchise deployments. Alternative channels are described in the feature library.
WhatsApp Questions
Do we need a WhatsApp Business account?
Yes. We help set it up or connect an existing one, including the display profile customers will see.
Can we send anything we like?
No. Business messaging operates under platform rules covering templates and opt-in. We work within them and explain what they allow.
What happens when a customer replies?
Replies route to your team or shared inbox. Leaving them unmonitored is the most common mistake, so this is configured from the start.
Can it use our existing WhatsApp number?
Usually, subject to platform requirements. This is checked during scoping because moving a number has consequences.
Is SMS an alternative?
Yes, and some businesses use both. SMS is more reliable for customers who do not use WhatsApp, and less rich for everything else.
