Connect WhatsApp in minutes — no developer, no support ticket.

It's Meta's official way to connect a WhatsApp Business number to a tool like WhatsMark without leaving the dashboard. You click "Connect WhatsApp", Meta's own window opens, you approve the permissions and pick your account and number, verify a code, and you're connected. It replaces the old process — emailing documents to a provider and waiting three to seven days — with a few minutes of self-serve setup.

No — that's the whole point. WhatsMark registers your number, sets up the webhook that delivers incoming messages, and stores the secure connection to Meta automatically. You never generate an API key, paste a callback URL, or touch any JSON. A marketing or operations lead can complete the entire connection without involving engineering.

The connection itself takes minutes — a good chunk of that is just waiting for Meta's verification code. Once connected, you can reply to incoming conversations straight away. Sending marketing templates needs Meta to approve your display name first; that timing is entirely Meta's process, and we show you the status rather than hiding it behind a vague promise.

Yes — that's Coexistence. Your number keeps working on the WhatsApp Business app and gains Cloud API access at the same time, so it's not a one-way migration and you don't lose the app. Your recent chat history comes across during setup, and after that messages sync both ways between the app and the shared inbox. How far back history goes and how fast a coexistence number can send are set by Meta's limits, not ours.

You approve the exact permissions on Meta's own consent screen — manage your WhatsApp assets, send messages, register the number, and set up webhooks. WhatsMark can't request anything that isn't on that screen. You can disconnect at any time: WhatsMark unhooks the number from Meta and releases it cleanly, and your WhatsApp Business Account and number stay entirely yours. Nothing is held hostage.

Yes. The Free plan connects 2 accounts, Professional 10, and Reseller unlimited — and that pool is shared with Facebook Messenger accounts, since WhatsMark runs both in one inbox. Each account can also carry more than one phone number. If you outgrow your plan’s pool, higher tiers (or add-ons) raise it.

Yes. Alongside the one-click embedded signup, there’s a manual connection path on every plan for power users and agencies who already have their own Meta app: paste your WhatsApp Business Account ID, access token, and app details, and WhatsMark validates and connects it. Most businesses use embedded signup; the manual route is there when you want full control of the credentials.

You run each client as its own WhatsMark workspace, and each one connects its own number under its own Meta Business Account. To be straight about it: there's no agency dashboard that shows every client's onboarding in one rollup, and WhatsMark doesn't register numbers on your behalf as a middleman — each number stays under its own owner. What resellers do get is the option to connect the signup window to their own Meta app, so the consent screen clients see carries the reseller's app, and client workspaces inherit that automatically. Reseller pricing is on the /reseller page.

Older providers — especially several built in the pre-Cloud-API era — ran onboarding on the legacy on-premise WhatsApp API, where every new number genuinely needed manual provisioning and back-office ticketing. Their dashboards never adopted Meta's embedded signup, so they kept the slow manual workflow even after it became unnecessary. WhatsMark was built on embedded signup as the default path, so there's no manual back-office step to wait on.
