Send Whatsapp message to user from website












0















I have one icon of WhatsApp. When the user clicks on it, It asks for the mobile number. I want to send a text to user's WhatsApp. Is there any way to achieve it?



I have tried WART Whatsapp but it no longer exists.
I have also searched about whatsmate. but it is not providing free test API.



I have also used whatsapp://send?text=text but it is redirecting to WhatsApp web.
I want to send a direct message to a user whenever the user hits the button.



is this possible?

  • It looks like WhatsApp doesn't provide an API for you to send direct messages, probably so that users can't be spammed with lots of automated messages. I don't think you can do this currently. blog.cloudrail.com/…

  • I'm quite sure they also want people to use their app, instead of some other services that would use their API.
