FAQ

WhatsApp Business FAQ

Are my customer conversations limited?

No. Replies in the team inbox, chatbot, and AI assistant are unlimited — they do not count against your plan.

What counts against my plan?

Marketing campaigns and automated alerts (orders, shipping, OTP, invitations) — not your team’s replies to customers.

How many team members can I add?

Based on your plan tier — we can increase seats if your team needs more.

What is the difference between WhatsApp Business App and WhatsApp Business API?

WhatsApp Business App is free for manual use on one phone with conversation limits. WhatsApp Business API is for companies needing automation, licensed bulk messaging, website/store integration, and multi-agent support. Watily provides the official API.

How much does WhatsApp Business cost?

Watily WhatsApp Business plans come in tiers based on your message volume and business needs, including management and setup with no hidden operational fees. See current pricing in the plans section below.

Are API messages different for the customer?

No, the customer receives them in regular WhatsApp. A "Business" badge appears next to your company name, with logo and a website button. Professional experience without installing any new app.

Can order notifications be automated?

Yes. When an order is placed: order confirmation auto-sent, ZATCA-compliant PDF invoice, shipment tracking, post-purchase review reminder. All automatic, no manual intervention.

Does it support bulk marketing messages?

Yes — within Meta and WhatsApp official policies. Approved Marketing Templates are sent to customers who opted in. The customer must have messaged you first or consented to receive messages.

How long does activation take?

Technical activation takes 24–72 hours once you have: a commercial registration, a business phone number (not previously used on WhatsApp), and a connected Facebook page. Watily handles the Meta verification end-to-end.

Do I need a new number, or can I use my current one?

You can connect the API on the same WhatsApp Business number without removing the app from your phone — mobile and Watily Hub work together on one number. Numbers on personal WhatsApp only must be migrated to Business first. A Saudi number (9665xxxxxxxx) is ideal for local audiences.

Do you serve all sectors in Saudi Arabia?

Yes. Our WhatsApp Business services cover: retail, restaurants & cafés, clinics & beauty, consultancies, event planners, shipping & delivery, real estate, education. All Saudi commercially registered companies qualify.

What is the difference between QR connect and official Meta API?

QR connect is faster to start (like WhatsApp Web) and supports bots and notifications. Official Meta API unlocks approved templates, marketing campaigns, and interactive buttons/lists. Watily Hub supports both, depending on your plan.

Can I build a WhatsApp bot with AI without coding?

Yes. Describe your bot or business, and AI builds the flow automatically. You can also train a virtual AI agent via the knowledge base to reply in professional Saudi Arabic.

Are message templates and users limited?

On paid Watily Hub plans: unlimited message templates and unlimited customer conversations (inbox, bot, AI). Monthly quota applies to campaigns and automated alerts only. Team seats follow your plan — we can add more if needed.
