No contact saving
Customers start a chat in one tap without saving your number first, which removes the most common drop-off point.
Free tool · No sign-up
Create a click-to-chat WhatsApp link with a pre-filled message and a QR code in three steps. Share it on your website, social profiles, ads or print material.
The generator builds a link in WhatsApp's official click-to-chat format. Everything runs in your browser; your number and message are not stored by MetaReach.
Choose the country code and type your WhatsApp number. Leave out the leading 0, spaces and dashes; the tool removes them anyway.
Write the greeting customers will see pre-typed, such as “Hi, I want to know the price of...”. They can edit it before sending.
Click Generate Link, then copy the link or download the QR code. Test it once on your phone before you publish it.
A WhatsApp link is a wa.me URL followed by the full international number, with the message URL-encoded after ?text=:
If you only need the chat to open, without a message, the link is just https://wa.me/919876543210.

A pre-filled message tells you where the lead came from and what they want, for example a product name or campaign code.
The same link works on websites, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, email signatures, SMS and, as a QR code, in print.
Using a different pre-filled message for each channel, such as “Hi, I saw your Instagram post”, lets you see which source brings the most chats.
A WhatsApp link works well when one person or a small team answers chats on the WhatsApp Business app. As chat volume grows, you may need features the app does not offer: several agents on one number, chatbots for common questions, automated order updates, and approved template messages to customers who opted in.
Those need the WhatsApp Business API. MetaReach sets up the API with a shared team inbox, a WhatsApp chatbot and Click-to-WhatsApp ads. Compare the two options in WhatsApp Business app vs API, or see WhatsApp Business API pricing.
A WhatsApp link, also called a click-to-chat link, is a URL in the format https://wa.me/<number>. When someone opens it, WhatsApp starts a chat with that number without them saving it as a contact. It can also carry a pre-filled message.
Yes. The generator is free and needs no sign-up. The link is created in your browser and uses WhatsApp's own wa.me format, so it does not expire and does not pass through MetaReach.
Yes. A wa.me link works with any WhatsApp number, whether it uses the regular WhatsApp app, the WhatsApp Business app or the WhatsApp Business Platform (API).
Generate your link here, copy it, then open Instagram, go to Edit profile, choose Links, add an external link and paste it. Instagram business profiles can also connect a WhatsApp Business number directly as a contact button.
The number must be in full international format without +, spaces, brackets, dashes or a leading 0, and it must be registered on WhatsApp. For an Indian number that means 91 followed by the 10-digit mobile number.
A plain wa.me link has no click tracking. Use a link shortener or UTM-tagged landing page to count clicks, or use Click-to-WhatsApp ads and the WhatsApp Business API to attribute conversations to campaigns.
