What is a wa.me link?

wa.me is WhatsApp's official click-to-chat address. A link like https://wa.me/15551234567 opens a chat with that number in the WhatsApp app or WhatsApp Web, without saving the contact.

How do I add a pre-filled message?

Type it in the message box. The tool adds it to the link as ?text=..., encoded so spaces, emojis and other languages work. The customer sees it in the chat box and can edit it before sending.

Why does the number need a country code?

WhatsApp only accepts numbers in full international format: the country code followed by the number, without +, spaces or a leading 0. Choose your country and the tool formats it for you.

Does it work with WhatsApp Business?

Yes. The link works for personal WhatsApp, the WhatsApp Business app and numbers on the WhatsApp Business API, on phones and on WhatsApp Web.

Can I reply to these chats automatically?

Yes, with a WhatsApp Business API number. Reflys can send an instant reply, answer common questions with AI and pass the chat to your team. It starts with a 7-day free trial.
