The basics
Do I need WhatsApp Business?
wapp.shop works with both WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business, but we recommend WhatsApp Business for features like a business profile, quick replies and labels.
Do my customers need to download an app?
No. Your store opens in any browser. Customers choose their products and the order is sent through their own WhatsApp.
Do you charge commissions on my sales?
Never. You pay a fixed monthly subscription and keep 100% of your sales.
Can I cancel at any time?
Yes. There are no contracts. Cancel from your dashboard whenever you want, and your store stays active until the end of the month you already paid for.
Setting up your store
How long does it take to set up a store?
Most businesses are live in about 5 minutes. Sign up, add your WhatsApp number and a few products, and share your link. You can keep adding products whenever you want.
Do I need technical or design skills?
No. Everything is done from a simple dashboard. Your store is automatically designed to look great on phones and computers.
Can I choose my store's link?
Yes. You pick your own wapp.shop/yourstore address in your store settings, as long as nobody else is using it.
Can I sell in my local currency?
Yes. Choose your currency in the store settings and all prices and totals are shown in it.
Orders, payments & delivery
How do I receive orders?
When a customer checks out, WhatsApp opens on their phone with a pre-filled message listing the items, totals and their details. They send it to your number and you continue the conversation as usual.
How do customers pay?
You agree on payment with your customer in the WhatsApp chat, using whatever methods you accept, like cash, bank transfer, payment links or cards. wapp.shop doesn't process your customers' payments.
Can I offer delivery and pickup?
Yes. Add shipping methods in your store settings, like home delivery or pickup, each with its own cost. You can also set a minimum order amount.
Does wapp.shop handle my money?
No. Payments go directly between you and your customer. wapp.shop never takes a cut of your sales.
