Set up WhatsApp on your Partoo account so that you can easily interact with your clients and prospects
Before getting started: Important information
Partoo allows you to manage your WhatsApp Business account, not a personal WhatsApp account.
Once activated on Partoo, your WhatsApp messages will only be accessible via Partoo. Therefore, you will no longer be able to view them on the WhatsApp application.
It is not possible to import an existing WhatsApp account to Partoo. You will be able to create a dedicated WhatsApp account by following the steps below.
Prerequisites
Here are the conditions to be able to manage your messages from Partoo:
Have a Facebook page.
Own a Meta Business account and be an administrator of it.
Have your identity verified on Meta Business Suite.
Have a phone number that is not already linked to a WhatsApp account and is accessible during the setup.
WhatsApp Setup
It is possible to use a landline or mobile phone number to create a WhatsApp Business account from Partoo and thus manage your conversations.
This phone number must not be associated with an existing WhatsApp account (Business or personal).
Go to your Partoo account settings and click on "Messages" and then on "WhatsApp".
Click on "Connect with WhatsApp Business".
A window opens and invites you to link your Facebook account or log in to Facebook. Follow the steps without leaving Partoo.
Select the "Business Wallet" that contains the Facebook page to be associated with the WhatsApp account and click "Next".
Then select "Create a WhatsApp Business account" and click "Next".
Fill in the fields that appear with your company's information and click "Next".
Enter the phone number you want to associate with the WhatsApp account and choose the method for verifying the number – call or SMS, then click next.
You will instantly receive a call or message containing a verification code; enter it into the interface and validate.
Your WhatsApp account is now set up on Partoo 🙌
