Business-account eligibility and onboarding assessment

Template and customer-permission planning

03

Shared conversation and handover requirements

Illustrative scope. Features and delivery terms are confirmed in your proposal.

Built around a real business need

A personal phone is a difficult place to manage a growing business conversation history. Messages can become scattered and customers may not know who is replying. An API-based workflow can bring structure, but account approval, templates, permissions and charges need to be understood before you promise automated messaging.

What a considered setup can do

Give conversations continuity

Agree how your team sees the conversation and takes responsibility for the next reply.

Use appropriate updates

Scope order or booking notifications around the channel rules and the customer permission required.

Connect approved information

Assess links to your store or customer system without exposing more data than necessary.

Keep a human route

Let customers reach a person when automation cannot resolve the request.

What we scope with you

  • Business-account eligibility and onboarding assessment
  • Template and customer-permission planning
  • Shared conversation and handover requirements
  • Notification and enquiry workflow design
  • Integration and channel-charge review

How we approach the work

01. Check the account

Review business details, eligibility and existing number arrangements.

02. Agree messages and handovers

Map templates, permissions, reply ownership and exception paths.

03. Test the connection

Check approved scenarios before using it with customers.

Compare the approach, not just the feature list

These are general decision points. The selected setup and capabilities are confirmed for your business.

ApproachUseful whenWhat to consider
DU WhatsApp APIYou need structured business messaging and assessed connections.Account eligibility, templates and channel charges apply.
Basic business messagingA small team can manage simple conversations directly.Review access, ownership and continuity.
SMS or emailThose channels better suit customer preferences.Assess permissions and the message purpose.

Privacy and responsible use

We agree the information required, who can access it and the handling responsibilities before setup. Data hosting and retention depend on the selected configuration; Australian-only processing is not assumed.

For marketing messages, plan consent, sender identification and a functional unsubscribe process under the applicable spam rules. Outbound telemarketing also needs an assessment of Do Not Call Register requirements and relevant calling standards.

Questions worth asking

Is the API the same as the mobile app?

No. The API is a connection for business messaging workflows. Account, number and feature arrangements need review before a change is made.

Can we keep our current WhatsApp number?

We assess the available options for your current account. Number reuse and app behaviour should not be assumed.

Can we message anyone who has our number?

No blanket permission should be assumed. Customer consent, channel requirements and applicable marketing laws must be considered for the actual message.

Are there ongoing charges?

Channel and service charges may apply in addition to setup. We confirm the current charging model in your quote.

Can it connect to an AI chatbot?

A connection may be possible after compatibility and data handling are reviewed. Human escalation remains part of the design.
