Whatsapp Integration | Connect Apps and Automate Business

WhatsApp is one of the most widely used communication platforms in the world. Businesses rely on it to connect with their customers, share updates, and provide support. But when it comes to automation and integrations, WhatsApp can be a tricky channel. The official WhatsApp Business API is powerful but comes with setup hurdles, approval processes, and ongoing costs. On the other hand, solutions like WASender are flexible and affordable, but they often require technical effort to connect to automation platforms. But with the Monkedo No-Code Automation Tool, WhatsApp integration is as easy as child’s play.

Whatsapp Integration FAQ

There are many common questions about WhatsApp integration, and here are some clear answers to help you understand how it works:

What is WhatsApp Business API integration cost?

Normally, using the WhatsApp Business API requires approval from Meta and involves a complex setup process. However, with WASender, you can bypass this approval process, making it easier to start using WhatsApp for automation. WASender itself charges a subscription fee for its service. On the Monkedo side, you can use up to 100 automation credits for free. Beyond that, a subscription is required to continue creating automations. Compared to other platforms like Zapier or Make, Monkedo is very cost-effective, offering powerful WhatsApp integration at a fraction of the price.

How to integrate WhatsApp Business Platform with CRM?

Integrating WhatsApp (via WASender) with your CRM using Monkedo is simple and fully no-code. First, log in to your Monkedo account and navigate to the Automation section to create a new automation. Using the Triggers and Actions components, search for WhatsApp (WASender) and drag it into the editor. Click the component to access its settings and connect your WhatsApp (WASender) account by following the prompts. Then, connect your CRM tool in the same way. Once both apps are connected, you can customize your workflow by linking outputs and inputs between components, creating smooth automations such as sending WhatsApp messages when new leads are added to your CRM. For a quicker start, a tutorial video is also available to guide you step by step.

What are Whatsapp Integration Tools?

WhatsApp integration tools help businesses connect WhatsApp with CRMs, marketing platforms, and other apps to automate communication. The official WhatsApp Business API is the primary solution, but it requires Meta’s approval and technical setup. To simplify access, third-party providers such as WASender, Twilio, 360dialog, Vonage, and MessageBird act as WhatsApp gateways. Monkedo No-Code Automation Software uses WASender.

How to do WhatsApp integration with e-commerce / Shopify / WooCommerce?

Monkedo already provides a native integration with Shopify, so you can easily automate WhatsApp notifications (order confirmations, shipping updates, delivery notices, etc.) by connecting Shopify and Whatsapp. WooCommerce is not available in Monkedo yet, but if you need WooCommerce or any other app added, please contact the Monkedo team through support@monkedo.com and explain the automation you want; the team reviews and prioritizes new app requests based on user demand.

Can I use WhatsApp for marketing campaigns?

You can use WhatsApp as part of your marketing campaigns by combining it with over 400 apps integrated in Monkedo. More than 100 of these apps are specifically marketing tools, including email platforms, SMS providers, form builders, and social media apps. This means you can design multi-channel campaigns where WhatsApp works alongside email, SMS, and social media to engage customers. For example, you can send a WhatsApp chat after someone fills out a form, follow up with an email, and then notify your sales team in Slack. You can also automate result collection and reporting, saving time and ensuring every step of your marketing process runs smoothly.

Beyond WhatsApp Integration

While WhatsApp integration is one of the most requested features, Monkedo offers a much wider range of options that make it a strong alternative to tools like Zapier, Make, or n8n. With over 400 SaaS integrations, Monkedo allows you to automate across the apps you already use whether for marketing, CRM, e-commerce, or internal operations.
