Your customers already use WhatsApp. Connect it to your business.

WhatsApp is part of everyday communication for millions of customers. The WhatsApp Business Platform allows organisations to move beyond a single phone and connect WhatsApp messaging with supported business systems and structured communication processes.

Move beyond WhatsApp on one phone. Make messaging part of the business.

The WhatsApp Business Platform provides the technical foundation for businesses to connect WhatsApp communication with supported applications and business processes.

01

WhatsApp Business

Establish WhatsApp as a structured business communication channel rather than relying only on individual personal messaging.

05

Structure approved business communications such as relevant updates, reminders and notifications where supported by the implementation and WhatsApp rules.

Business updates
06

ERP Integration

Where technically supported, WhatsApp can be connected with ERP workflows so communication forms part of the wider business process.

Connected ERP

Connect the channel. Build the business process around it.

A useful WhatsApp API implementation starts with the business requirement. The communication channel can then be configured and connected to the appropriate workflow.

01

Assess

Identify how the business wants to use WhatsApp and which processes need communication.

02

Set Up

Prepare the required WhatsApp Business environment for the intended implementation.

→
03

Connect

Connect WhatsApp to the supported application or business workflow.

→
04

Communicate

Use the configured channel as part of the intended customer or operational process.

Don't leave WhatsApp on the side. Connect it to the business process.

When WhatsApp operates separately from the systems used by the business, employees may need to move information manually between conversations and operational records.

API-based integration creates the opportunity to connect WhatsApp communication with supported ERP and business workflows.

The exact functionality depends on the platform, integration, WhatsApp account configuration and the business process being implemented.

WORKFLOW

Use WhatsApp where it adds value to the workflow.

The API is not simply about sending more messages. Its value comes from connecting communication to a useful business process.

Depending on the implementation, WhatsApp may support customer enquiries, relevant updates, reminders and other structured communications.

Each use case should be designed around the actual system, customer relationship and WhatsApp messaging requirements involved.

Keep the familiar conversation. Give it business structure.

WhatsApp can remain a familiar communication channel for the customer while API integration gives the business a structured way to connect that communication with supported systems.

Familiar Channel

Communicate through a platform that many customers already use as part of their everyday communication.

System Connection

Connect WhatsApp with supported business applications where the required integration is available.

Connected Workflow

Make communication part of a wider customer or operational process instead of an isolated conversation.

WhatsApp Business Platform functionality, message templates, customer communication and integrations are subject to Meta's current policies, account requirements, messaging rules and the capabilities of the business system being connected.
THE OBJECTIVE

Keep the conversation on WhatsApp. Connect the work behind it.

Bring WhatsApp communication, supported business applications and operational workflows together through an appropriate WhatsApp API implementation.

Bapple helps businesses plan and implement WhatsApp Business Platform connections designed around practical communication requirements and the systems used to run the business.
