The busywork WhatsApp can take off your plate.

These are the things businesses wire up first once their number is connected. Each one has a guide that shows the exact steps.

Appointment reminders Remind customers the day before. They confirm or cancel by replying, and your calendar updates itself. Fewer no-shows, no morning spent on the phone. Guide Order updates and tracking A confirmation when they buy, a tracking link when it ships, and an instant answer to "where is my order", without anyone opening a support inbox. Guide Leads into your CRM Every new enquiry lands in your spreadsheet, Airtable or CRM, with an instant "thanks, we are right with you" reply, before you have even seen it. Guide An assistant that answers 24/7 Common questions answered day and night, with anything unusual handed to a human. Your model, your prompts, your tone of voice. Guide Everything else Notifications, verification codes, shared support numbers, one number per customer. The full library, with a ready-made prompt in each guide. All guides

Three ways in. Pick the one that fits you.

Whichever path you take, the first step is the same. Sign up, then pair your WhatsApp number by scanning a QR code, the same way WhatsApp Web works. That takes about a minute. Then:

Use your automation tool
Make, n8n or Zapier, no app to install

WABridges plugs straight into the webhook and HTTP steps those tools already ship. Sending a WhatsApp message is one HTTP step in your scenario. An incoming message triggers a workflow like any other event.

The guides below show which blocks to add and what to paste into each field.

HTTP step · send a message
// URL
POST /api/instances/user-123/proxy/send/text

// Headers
Authorization: Bearer sk_…

// Body

  "chat": "15559876543",
  "body": "Your order shipped."

Describe it to an AI assistant
Our docs are written to be pasted

You do not need to read the documentation. Open ChatGPT or Claude, give it wabridges.com/llms-full.txt, and say what you want in plain English. It builds the pieces and walks you through every step.

Every guide ships with a ready-made prompt to paste in.

Hand it to your developer
An afternoon, not a project

Work with a developer or an agency? Send them wabridges.com/docs. There is no Meta Business approval to wait on, nothing to host and no SDK to learn.

You pay them for a few hours, once. After that the $5 a month is the whole running cost.

The tool you already build in. Step by step.

No official app to install in any of them. The standard webhook and HTTP blocks are enough, and each guide names the exact fields.

WhatsApp in Make A webhook module for incoming messages, an HTTP module to send. Wire it into any scenario you already run. Make guide WhatsApp in n8n Webhook node in, HTTP Request node out. Self-hosted or cloud, both work the same way. n8n guide WhatsApp in Zapier Catch Hook as the trigger, Webhooks by Zapier as the action. Everything else is your usual Zap. Zapier guide

What you get for $5. And what you do not.

WABridges is the connection between WhatsApp and the tools you run your business on. Nothing more, which is why it costs what it costs.

Unlimited messagesFlat $5 a month per WhatsApp number, in and out. No per-message fee and no per-conversation fee.
Your own number, still on your phoneWe connect as a linked device, like WhatsApp Web. Your phone keeps sending and receiving as normal.
Set up by scanning a QRNo Meta Business approval, no message templates, no 24-hour reply window to work around.
Not a team inboxThere is no shared inbox or drag-and-drop campaign builder here. If that is what you want, an all-in-one suite fits better, at many times the price.

Common questions

Do I need to know how to code?

No. If you are comfortable clicking together an automation in Make, n8n or Zapier, or asking ChatGPT or Claude for step-by-step help, you can do this yourself. If none of that sounds like you, the setup is small enough to hand to any developer.

Which phone number do I use?

Any WhatsApp-capable number: your existing business number, a spare SIM or a VoIP number. You pair it by scanning a QR code, exactly like linking WhatsApp Web.

Will WhatsApp still work on my phone?

Yes. WABridges connects as a linked device, the same mechanism as WhatsApp Web. Your phone keeps working normally, and you can see every conversation there.

Is there a Zapier or Make app I need to install?

No, and that is by design. The webhook and HTTP steps built into those tools talk to WABridges directly. The Make, n8n and Zapier guides show exactly which blocks to add.

What does it cost?

A flat $5 a month per WhatsApp number, unlimited messages. Your first number is free for 7 days (card on file, nothing charged until the trial ends), and if you cancel mid-month the unused days are refunded automatically. Full pricing →
