Connecting WhatsApp Business

Sociovite integrates directly with the official Meta WhatsApp Cloud API via Meta Embedded Signup. This integration provides enterprise-grade message delivery performance, full Meta policy compliance, and zero risk of bans or logouts caused by unauthorized third-party WhatsApp bots.

Choose How to Add Your Number

You can add a WhatsApp number in two ways:

  • Add a number through Sociovite (Most Convenient): Click Connect WhatsApp Business in Sociovite and complete the setup in the Meta authorization window. You can select an existing number or add a new one.

  • Via Meta Business Suite First (business.facebook.com): Add your number in Meta Business Suite > WhatsApp accounts using the + Add button, either via Create a new WhatsApp business account or Link a WhatsApp Business account. Once saved in Meta, the number automatically appears in Sociovite's popup dropdown ready for selection.

Select Your Number

During the Meta setup, choose the option that matches your number:

  1. Existing number registered in WhatsApp Business: Select the number from the list and click Next. No new verification is required.

  2. New or unregistered number: Select Enter a new phone number, then enter the number. Meta will send a 6-digit verification code by SMS or voice call to verify ownership.

  3. Number currently active in the WhatsApp Business app: Enter the active number. Meta will display a QR code and send a verification chat to the WhatsApp Business app. Open the chat and tap Connect to complete the linking process with a [Connect] button to confirm account linking (Link a WhatsApp Business account).
