The basics
What Is a WhatsApp Link?
A WhatsApp link, also called a click-to-chat or wa.me link, is a web address that opens a chat with your number when someone taps it. It works on phones, tablets and WhatsApp Web, for both WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business. The customer does not need to save your number first, which removes one of the biggest reasons people give up before they message you.
A link with a message looks like wa.me/233241234567?text=Hi%2C%20I%20want%20to%20order. The part after ?text= is the message, encoded so spaces, emojis and new lines work. The generator above does the encoding for you.

How to Write Your Number in a WhatsApp Link
Use your full international number, digits only: the country code, then your number without its first 0. No plus sign, spaces or dashes. Most broken WhatsApp links come from keeping the 0.

|---|---|---|
| Ghana (MTN) | 024 123 4567 | wa.me/233241234567 |

Pre-Filled Messages That Help You Sell
A good pre-filled message tells you what the customer wants before you reply, so you can answer with the price and a way to pay straight away. Name the product and, if you can, where they found you.
Product posts
“Hi, I want to order the [product]. Is it available?”
Price questions
“Hi, I’d like to know the price of [product] and delivery to [area].”
TikTok and Reels
“Hi, I saw your video on TikTok and I’m interested in [product].”
Courses and ebooks
“Hi, I want to join [course name]. How do I pay?”
Bookings
“Hi, I’d like to book [service] for [date].”
Once they message, these WhatsApp sales messages help you reply, follow up and close the sale.
From WhatsApp Chat to Payment
The chat is where people decide. Getting paid is where many sales are lost: you send your MoMo number, wait for a screenshot, check your phone, and then send the product by hand. Some customers never come back after “let me send it later”.
A payment link fixes that. Send one link in the chat and the customer pays by MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash, AirtelTigo Money or card. You get the order with their details, and ebooks, courses and other files are delivered the moment they pay.
