Widget Categories: Social
The WhatsApp widget enables visitors to get in touch with site owners quickly and easily, especially on mobile. Opportunities for engagement and conversion will increase, making it easier to convert anonymous site visitors into real customers.
When site visitors click the WhatsApp button, the chat opens in desktop if the desktop app is installed. If only the web app is installed, the user is prompted to use the web app or log in.
