Making customer management easier!
Whatsapp is becoming the preferred communication and customer engagement channel for businesses across the world. It is one of the most powerful Sales and Support tools ever made. WhatsApp has simplified its opt-in policy to make it easier for brands to obtain customer consent to receive messages on WhatsApp.
Why WhatsApp opt-ins?
WhatsApp Chatbots are cheap, effective and customer-friendly. Understandably, however, WhatsApp doesn’t want to turn the platform into a waste ground of spam. So, in order to communicate with customers on WhatsApp, the company makes it compulsory to collect WhatsApp Business Opt-Ins.

An opt-in is traditionally defined as a form of explicit consent given by users, acknowledging interest in a product or service and authorizing a third party to contact them with further information. WhatsApp Business further states “A user must first consent to receive messages in WhatsApp by opting into them via a third-party channel.”
