QR Code for WhatsApp Business is a feature that enables both new and existing customers to easily start conversing with a business.
The QR Code can be printed and displayed in public places like storefront, flyers and others. Or it can be displayed in the business website, social media profile and other places.
How the WhatsApp QR Code for Business Works
Head to the Business Tool section of WhatsApp to get the QR Code. You print or save it to your device so you can upload to your website, social media or any other public place you want to.
Users scan the code. Their WhatsApp opens with your business chat page.
They start conversing with you immediately, without first, going through the stress of saving your contact on their phonebook.
