WhatsApp Business Platform (API): Frequently Asked Questions

The WhatsApp Business API, now known as the WhatsApp Business Platform, is Meta’s official API and messaging infrastructure for businesses using WhatsApp at scale. It does not provide a standalone interface for teams, so businesses can build their own integration or connect it with a platform like Convrs to manage conversations, campaigns, automation, integrations, and more.

The WhatsApp Business App is designed for smaller businesses with simpler messaging needs and limited team access. The WhatsApp Business Platform is built for businesses that need to use WhatsApp across multiple users and teams, automate interactions, run campaigns, and connect with other business systems.

Compare the WhatsApp Business App and Business Platform

Not necessarily. Businesses with development resources can integrate directly with the WhatsApp Business Platform APIs, but the Platform does not provide a standalone interface for teams to manage messaging. Working with a provider like Convrs gives you the interface, tools, integrations, and support needed to put WhatsApp to work across your business.

Yes. Convrs enables multiple team members to manage WhatsApp conversations from one shared workspace, with roles and permissions to control access and make it easier to route and manage conversations across teams.

Yes. The WhatsApp Business Platform can integrate with CRMs and other business systems. Convrs helps connect WhatsApp with your existing tools so customer data can inform conversations, automation, and messaging workflows.

WhatsApp Business Platform costs depend on how you use it. Meta charges based on messages delivered, with rates varying by the recipient’s market and message category, including marketing, utility, authentication, and service. With Convrs, there are no additional per-message charges on top of Meta’s rates. You only pay your Convrs subscription based on your selected plan.

To get started, you’ll need a Meta business account, your business information, and a phone number to use with WhatsApp. Convrs will guide you through the onboarding and setup process based on your existing WhatsApp and Meta setup.

Yes. With WhatsApp Coexistence, you can connect an existing WhatsApp Business App number to Convrs and keep using the app on your phone. Messages sync between the two, and your contacts and up to six months of chat history come across when you connect. Coexistence numbers in Convrs are designed for one-to-one conversations. If you need campaigns, chatbots, or automation, a number connected directly to the WhatsApp Business Platform is the better fit, and Convrs can help you decide which setup suits your business.

Coexistence lets one number work in both the WhatsApp Business App and Convrs at the same time, so your team can keep replying from their phones while every conversation is captured in Convrs. A number connected directly to the WhatsApp Business Platform works only through Convrs, and supports high-volume messaging, campaigns, chatbots, and automated flows. Coexistence suits teams that manage relationships one-to-one; the direct Platform connection suits teams that need to message at scale.

If you’re already using the WhatsApp Business App, you can use Coexistence as long as your number meets Meta’s eligibility requirements. You’ll need an up-to-date version of the app, and whoever has the phone will need to be available during setup to confirm the connection. We’ll check your number’s eligibility and guide you through every step.
