WhatsApp link generator
Make a click-to-chat link that opens a WhatsApp conversation with your business, with a message already typed in. Paste it on your website, Instagram bio, Google Business Profile, ads or email signature.
The customer sees this typed into their chat and can edit it before sending.
Enter a number to build your link.
How the link is built
WhatsApp's click to chat feature opens a chat with any number from a plain URL: https://wa.me/ followed by the number in full international format, and optionally ?text= with the message, URL-encoded. The generator strips spaces, dashes, brackets and the leading zero for you, so you can paste the number however you normally write it.
Where businesses put it
- A “Chat with us” button on the website and on every product page.
- Instagram, TikTok and Facebook bios, where you cannot add a chat widget.
- Different pre-filled messages per campaign (“Hi, I saw your September promotion”) so you can tell which post brought the enquiry.
- Printed material, as a QR code: use our WhatsApp QR code generator.
WhatsApp link questions
- How do I create a WhatsApp link?
- Use WhatsApp's click-to-chat format: https://wa.me/ followed by your full number in international format, with no plus sign, spaces, brackets, dashes or leading zero. A Singapore number 9123 4567 becomes https://wa.me/6591234567. Add ?text= and a URL-encoded message to pre-fill the chat. The generator above does all of this for you.
- Does a WhatsApp link work with the WhatsApp Business app?
- Yes. Click-to-chat links work with personal WhatsApp accounts, the WhatsApp Business app and numbers on the WhatsApp Business Platform (API). The link only opens a chat; what happens next depends on who, or what, answers it.
- Why does my wa.me link say the number is not on WhatsApp?
- Usually the number is formatted wrongly: a leading 0 left in, the country code missing or typed twice, or a landline that has never been registered on WhatsApp. Check that the digits after wa.me/ are the country code followed by the national number, then test the link from a phone.
- Can I change the message after I share the link?
- No, the message is part of the link itself. Generate a new link with the new message and replace the old one wherever you posted it. The customer can always edit the pre-filled text before sending.
- Is this generator free, and do you store my number?
- It is free with no sign-up. The link is built in your browser and the number and message are never sent to our servers.
More chats are good news only if someone answers
