2

Add a pre-filled message

Optionally add a message that will be pre-filled in the chat when a visitor clicks your link.

3

Copy your wa.me link

Copy your generated wa.me link and share it anywhere โ€” email, website, social media, or ads.

Why use WhatsApp links for business?

No App Download Needed

WhatsApp links open directly in the WhatsApp app (or web version). Anyone can click and message you instantly.

Pre-filled Message

Include a custom pre-filled message so customers start the conversation with context โ€” perfect for lead capture.

Works Everywhere

Share your link in email signatures, social media bios, ad campaigns, business cards, and on your website.

Track Engagement

Connect your WhatsApp link to UTM parameters to track which channels drive the most conversations.

Instant Access

Generated links work immediately. No account setup or waiting required on the recipient's side.

Professional Appearance

Use a short link or custom domain for a clean, professional look โ€” not a long wa.me URL.

Where to use your WhatsApp link

Email Signatures

Social Media Bio

Put your link in your Instagram, TikTok, or LinkedIn bio to direct followers to a WhatsApp conversation.

Ad Campaigns

Frequently asked questions

What is a WhatsApp link? +

A WhatsApp link (wa.me link) is a direct URL that opens WhatsApp and starts a conversation with a specific phone number when clicked. For example, https://wa.me/447700900000 opens a chat with that number. You can also add a pre-filled message to the URL so customers begin the conversation with context.

How do I create a WhatsApp link for my business? +

You can create a WhatsApp link using the format https://wa.me/[country-code][phone-number]. For example, a UK number 07700 900000 becomes https://wa.me/447700900000. Use this tool to generate the link automatically โ€” enter your number and optional pre-filled message, and copy the result.

Can I add a pre-filled message to a WhatsApp link? +

Yes. You can add a pre-filled message by appending ?text=[your-message] to your wa.me link. When a visitor clicks the link, WhatsApp opens with your message already typed in the text field โ€” they just need to tap Send. This is great for lead capture, support requests, and appointment bookings.

Does a WhatsApp link work without WhatsApp Business? +

Yes. A wa.me link works with any WhatsApp account โ€” personal or Business. However, WhatsApp Business is recommended for customer-facing use because it gives you a business profile, automated greetings, quick replies, and better analytics. The link generation works identically for both.

How do I add a WhatsApp link to my website? +

You can add your WhatsApp link to your website as a plain text link, a button, or a floating chat widget. For a floating widget with tracking and analytics, use LimeCall's WhatsApp widget โ€” paste one snippet into your site and a branded WhatsApp button appears on every page.
