Auto Feedback

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear, accurate guidance on Meta compliance policies, Green Tick criteria, account protection, and pricing.
The WhatsApp Business API (officially known as the WhatsApp Business Platform / Cloud API) does not have a standalone mobile application. Instead, businesses access it through specialized software platforms, Meta Business Solution Providers (BSPs), or custom-built internal CRMs. These platforms provide multi-agent shared inboxes, chatbot flow builders, campaign schedulers, and analytics dashboards.
