Note: This is a plugin for RISE CRM.
Brief description
The WhatsApp Business Platform Integration plugin for RISE CRM, gives medium to large businesses the ability to connect with customers at scale, using Cloud API and free messaging,
under WhatsApp Business Account (WABA) limits.
You can start conversations with customers, send customer notifications or infromation regarding actions that occur in your RISE CRM (Invoice generation, Proposals etc – Please check the full action list below).
It simply offers your customers a level of personalized service and provide support in the channel that your customers prefer mostly to be reached on: WhatsApp!
With our plugin, you can send messages to customers and staff members of your RISE CRM, using cloud-based servers owned by Meta to host the WhatsApp Business API client.
Messages can be triggered under your specific rules, created using a selected trigger point, out of the most common RISE CRM's functions (IE When a new Lead is created, when a new Invoice is ready for checkout etc).
If you dont like trigger messages and want to massively send broadcast messages (custom messages) at your Cusomers/Leads/Contacts, you can use our Broadcast Message feature that supports Merge Fields (Dynamic Fields) aswell:
The Cloud API allows you to implement WhatsApp Business APIs without the cost of hosting of your own servers and also allows you to more easily scale your business messaging.
In order to send messages using the WhatsApp Business Platform you will need a name to be displayed in the WhatsApp messages seen by customers, a phone number associated with your
business account, a WhatsApp Business Account, and a Meta Business Manager.
The current Business Use Case Rate Limits can be found here.
