Your WhatsApp link

How to use your WhatsApp link

  1. Enter your WhatsApp Business number in full international format — country code first, no +, no spaces. For India: 91 + 10-digit number.
  2. (Optional) Add a pre-filled message so customers start the chat with structured text instead of a blank "hi".
  3. Copy the generated wa.me link and paste it anywhere — Instagram bio, Google Business profile, email footer, PDF invoices, or a QR code on packaging.
  4. When someone taps it, WhatsApp opens with a chat to your number ready to go.

Frequently asked questions

What is a wa.me link?

wa.me is WhatsApp's official short link format. A link like https://wa.me/919876543210 opens a chat with that number in WhatsApp — on phones it opens the app, on desktop it opens WhatsApp Web. You can also pre-fill the first message with ?text=.

Do I need the country code in the number?

Yes. The number must be in full international format with no +, spaces, or leading zeros. For India that means starting with 91 followed by the 10-digit mobile number (e.g. 919876543210). Drop the leading 0 from std/mobile numbers.

Is this wa.me link generator free?

Yes, completely free, no signup, no watermark. It builds the link entirely in your browser. This tool is part of AiConva's free WhatsApp marketing resources.

Can I pre-fill the message the customer sends me?

Yes — type your message in the field and it's added as ?text= (URL-encoded). When a customer taps the link, WhatsApp opens with that text ready for them to send, so you get a structured first message instead of a blank 'hi'.

Does a wa.me link work for WhatsApp Business API numbers?

Yes. wa.me works with any WhatsApp number including Business API numbers. It's the simplest way to collect inbound conversations from ads, emails, QR codes, and your website — every click starts a chat you can then automate.
