WhatsApp has the broadest reach — most prospects already have it installed.
Setup
- In your Rentalot dashboard, go to Channels > WhatsApp
- Click Connect WhatsApp — this opens the Meta Embedded Signup flow
- Log in with your Facebook account and follow the prompts
- Meta creates a WhatsApp Business Account for you automatically
- Once complete, your channel shows as Active
No phone number purchase needed — Meta provisions one for you during signup.
Sharing Your Number
Once connected, you get:
- A wa.me link (e.g.,
wa.me/15551234567) — share this anywhere - A QR code — print it or embed on your website
Message Limits
WhatsApp has sending limits based on your business verification status:
| Status | Daily Limit |
|---|---|
| Unverified | 250 messages |
| Verified | 1,000+ messages |
Rentalot will prompt you to complete Meta Business Verification when you approach the 250/day limit.
Tips
- Complete business verification early to avoid hitting limits
- Your WhatsApp business profile (name, description, photo) is set during the Embedded Signup
