WhatsApp link generator
Paste your number, write the message you want customers to start with, and get a wa.me link you can put on Instagram, your website, a business card or a QR sticker.
How a WhatsApp link works
A wa.me link opens a chat with your number directly — no saving the contact first. Adding ?text= pre-fills the first message, so the customer only presses send. Use it in your Instagram bio, on Facebook posts, in email signatures, and on printed material as a QR code. The link works on phones and on WhatsApp Web.
Frequently asked questions
What format should the phone number be in?
International format without the plus sign, spaces or leading zero: country code followed by the number, e.g. 94771234567 for Sri Lanka or 919876543210 for India. The generator strips everything else for you.
Can I use it for a WhatsApp Business number?
Yes — wa.me links work identically for personal and Business accounts. If you have a WhatsApp Business catalogue, the customer lands in the same chat.
Does the pre-filled message work with emoji and Sinhala or Hindi text?
Yes. The message is URL-encoded, so any script and emoji arrive intact. Keep it short — one line the customer can send as-is.
