WhatsApp Business is a reality. Company accounts arrive

The WhatsApp Business idea is simple. They want brands, manufacturers or any business to create an account with which to communicate with their customers. To do this, if there are businesses interested in having an account, the application asks them to contact them. To begin with the review and approval process.

At the moment it is not known when it will be ready, but various data on business accounts have already been revealed. First, it will be easy to identify if it is a business account. A green star will appear next to your name and phone number, so that we can identify you. In this way, we know that those verified accounts have this symbol and we avoid falling into fraud.

WhatsApp has also revealed that users will have the option to block those accounts. In case they do not want to be contacted by them. Another thing that has been confirmed by various American media is that there will be a version of the application for small businesses, which will be free. And another for large companies with additional functions, which will be paid.

Now we just have to wait for the arrival of WhatsApp Business. It is undoubtedly a moment of great importance for the application, which is entering a new market. At the moment, one of the first companies to have this service will be the Dutch airline KLM.
