WhatsApp link generator

A wa.me link is four pieces stuck together, and one wrong character in any of them sends people to a dead end. Fill the boxes and watch the link assemble itself, piece by piece.

Your link, once you fill the boxes below

Built here in your browser. Nothing is sent to us.

Whoever taps your link lands in a chat with the message already typed. They still press send themselves.

Each one drops into the box above, brackets and all. Swap the bracketed bits for your own and the link rewrites itself as you type.

Selling something

For a bio link, a listing, or a product page.

Booking and services

For clinics, salons, restaurants, agents and freelancers.

Support and personal

For a help link in your footer, or a link you send a person.

why links break

Three characters, three dead ends.

Every โ€œthis link doesn't workโ€ is one of these. The board above fixes all three as you type, but they are worth knowing if you ever write a wa.me link by hand.

where people put it

One link, most of your funnel.

Instagram or TikTok bioOne tap from your profile into a chat, instead of โ€œDM for priceโ€.
Email signatureA โ€œmessage me on WhatsAppโ€ line that works from a laptop as well as a phone.
Product and checkout pagesPrefill the message with the item, so you know what they are asking about.
Ads and QR codesClick-to-WhatsApp ads and printed codes both need a plain link like this one.

Questions, answered

Is this free?
Yes, and there is no sign-up. A wa.me link is a plain URL that WhatsApp itself supports, so nobody is charging for it, including us.
Does the other person need to save my number?
No. That is the whole point of a wa.me link. Tapping it opens a chat with your number even if it is not in their contacts, which is otherwise awkward on WhatsApp.
Do I need their number saved to receive the message?
No. Once they send the first message the chat exists on both sides, exactly like any other WhatsApp conversation.
Why does my link say the number is not on WhatsApp?
Almost always formatting. The link needs the country code, with no plus sign, no spaces, no dashes and no leading zero from the local format. The generator above strips all of that for you, so build the link here rather than typing wa.me by hand.
Does it work with WhatsApp Business?
Yes. A WhatsApp Business account is reachable at the same wa.me link as any other number.
Can I prefill the message?
Yes, that is the message box, and the templates underneath fill it for you. The text is added to the link and appears in the chat already typed. The person still presses send themselves, so no message is ever sent on their behalf.
Does the prefilled message work on WhatsApp Web?
Yes. The same link opens web.whatsapp.com on a desktop browser with the message in place, as long as that browser is logged in.
Is my phone number stored anywhere?
No. The link is assembled in your browser as you type. Nothing is sent to our servers, and there is nothing for us to keep.
