Connect Instant WhatsApp to reply to your customers, and all interactions will be saved in CRM.
Customers visit your site and choose to communicate via WhatsApp through the Bitrix24 widget. They will be redirected to WhatsApp with a message containing the agent's personal code. When the customer sends this message, a chat will appear in the deal, and you will receive a notification.
You don't need to register on Facebook or WhatsApp. The channel is automatically connected to your most active widget or open channel.
