Click-to-WhatsApp Ads (CTWA)

Click-to-WhatsApp ads are Facebook and Instagram ads that open a WhatsApp chat with the business when tapped, instead of a landing page. They turn ad clicks into conversations and are a top way to generate WhatsApp leads.

Because the customer starts the chat, it opens the customer-care window, and their opt-in and interest are captured directly in the conversation.

Businesses pair CTWA with automation to qualify and route leads instantly.
