WhatsApp Business API

Phone Number

Decide which phone number you want to use under the WhatsApp Business API. This is important because once the API is enabled on this number, you will no longer be able to run the normal WhatsApp application and personal correspondence will be inaccessible. It is better to have a SIM card, not a virtual number, so that there will be no difficulties with disabling various redirections and voice answering machines (this should be done before connecting the API).

Download the WhatsApp Business app and authorize in it from this number. You need to have access to the app before the process is complete; you'll need to accept and send a code.

Documentation set

To pass the verification and to conclude a contract on WhatsApp Business API, gather a set of documents. You need good quality PDF files without stains, creases, torn fragments, etc. With stamps (regular or digital)
