How to use the WhatsApp link generator

A WhatsApp link (also called a wa.me link or click-to-chat link) lets anyone start a WhatsApp conversation with you in a single tap โ€” without saving your phone number to their address book first.

Where to use your WhatsApp link and QR code

  • Your website: as a contact button or a floating WhatsApp chat widget.
  • Social media profiles: in your Instagram bio, TikTok profile, Facebook page or YouTube description.
  • Google Business Profile: so local searchers can message you directly from Google Maps.
  • Printed materials: place the downloadable PNG QR code on business cards, menus, flyers, storefront windows and product packaging.

Need to message a number once without creating a link? Try our Open WhatsApp Chat Without Saving Contact tool, or read our WhatsApp Link Marketing Guide.

Step-by-step guide

  1. Select your country code from the dropdown menu. You can search by country name or dial code.
  2. Enter your WhatsApp phone number without the leading zero, dashes or spaces.
  3. Write a pre-filled message (optional) so you immediately know which page or campaign the customer came from.
  4. Click "Generate Link" to copy your wa.me URL or download the PNG QR code.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Link and QR code generation runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. The phone numbers and messages you enter are never transmitted to or stored on our servers.
