You keep using the app and also connect the API
The same number is connected at the same time to the WhatsApp Business app and the official API. What comes in and goes out is mirrored on both sides.
Benefits
- You do not change numbers or lose your contacts.
- Your contacts and up to six months of chat history are synced.
- Your team can keep replying from the phone, and the CRM and agents see the same conversation.
- What you send from the app is still free: Meta only charges for what goes out through the API.
Keep in mind
- The sending speed is fixed at 20 messages per second.
- Group chats are not synced.
- Broadcast lists, disappearing messages, view-once messages and live location are disabled.
