How to Create a WhatsApp Link for Your Business in Seconds

Learn how to generate a wa.me link with a pre-filled message so customers can reach you with one tap — no phone number sharing required.

·4 min read

Getting customers to contact you on WhatsApp shouldn't require them to save your number first. A WhatsApp link — also called a wa.me link — lets anyone open a conversation with your business by clicking a single URL.

What is a WhatsApp link?

A WhatsApp link is a URL in the format https://wa.me/<phone> that, when tapped, opens WhatsApp and pre-selects your number. You can also attach a pre-filled message so the customer doesn't have to type anything.

For example: https://wa.me/5511999999999?text=Hello%2C+I+want+to+know+more+about+your+services

Why use a WhatsApp link instead of sharing your number?

  • Frictionless contact — customers click once, the chat opens immediately.
  • Cleaner marketing — paste the link in your Instagram bio, email signature, or website button.
  • Pre-filled context — include a message so you know exactly why someone is writing.
  • Trackable — combine with a short link to see how many people click.

How to create one with WaUrl

  1. Go to waurl.online and enter your phone number with the country code.
  2. Type the message you want to appear in the customer's chat box.
  3. Click Generate — your link is ready instantly.
  4. Copy the link, or download a QR code to print on packaging, posters, or business cards.

Tips for a great WhatsApp link

Keep the pre-filled message short and clear. Something like "Hi, I'm interested in [product/service]" works well. Long messages feel robotic and customers often delete them before sending.

Use a short link. Raw wa.me URLs are long and look untrustworthy in print. WaUrl's built-in shortener turns your link into a clean waurl.online/s/abc123 URL.

Add a QR code to physical materials. Offline customers who can't click a link can simply scan — WaUrl generates a high-resolution QR code you can print at any size.

Where to share your WhatsApp link

  • Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok bios
  • Website "Contact" button
  • Email newsletter footer
  • Business cards and product packaging
  • Google Business Profile

A WhatsApp link is one of the highest-converting contact methods for small businesses. Once you have yours, make sure it points to a number you check regularly — missing a message means losing a potential sale.
