Serve customers through a simple and seamless digital experience

In recent years, the consumer profile has undergone significant changes in the way of interacting with brands. Today, customers want to connect with companies in the same way that they chat with their friends and family, through channels they use regularly in their daily lives. Therefore, it is essential to be present in all the channels where customers expect to find them. WhatsApp Business API  opens the door to better communications, leading to better customer engagement, greater trust, and lasting long-term relationships. According to the latest data published in 2020 (source: statista.com), WhatsApp already counts with more than 2 billion users worldwide, making it one of the most powerful messaging applications in the world.

WhatsApp Business API offers the possibility to complement or extend existing available channels to provide a seamless customer experience, providing advanced features that allows businesses to manage a high volume of messages as well as to automate and integrate processes to offer a more completed, personalized and valuable experience to customers.

WhatsApp Business API can be used not only to offer support and assistance to customers but also as a channel to carry out day-to-day operations or processes such initiating invoice payments, purchases or orders, contracting new services or even as way to keep clients informed about travel updates and payment confirmations, appointment reminders, shipping alerts and more.
