What is WhatsApp Broadcast?
WhatsApp broadcast is a function that allows you to broadcast a message to several contacts at once without forming a group conversation. It’s beneficial when you want to deliver the same message (e.g., announcements, invites, promotions) to multiple people separately while keeping responses private—each recipient receives the message in their personal conversation with you.
With broadcasts, you’ll know who’s on the list, and customers will get messages from you as long as they have your phone number and are on your list. You can eliminate this restriction by gaining access to the WhatsApp Business API, which allows you to reach out to an infinite number of consumers on WhatsApp.
