India's highest-ROI marketing channel
WhatsApp marketing puts your campaigns in the one app Indian consumers check dozens of times a day- rich media, verified sender identity, and two-way replies, all in a single thread.
It lands where your customers already are
Indian consumers check WhatsApp 25+ times daily. Unlike email or a competitive social feed, messages land in a personal, distraction-free inbox.
It enables two-way conversations
Customers can reply, ask questions, tap buttons, and complete transactions in the same thread- driving 5x–8x higher conversion than SMS.
Verified sender identity builds instant trust
Your brand name, logo, and Green Tick appear on every message- WhatsApp campaigns see 60–70% lower opt-out rates than SMS.

Questions about WhatsApp Marketing in India
WhatsApp marketing is the use of WhatsApp Business API to send promotional campaigns, transactional notifications, and automated customer journeys to opted-in customers. It works by sending Meta-approved templates via the API- delivering rich media messages with verified sender identity. India consistently sees 98% open rates and 20–28% click-through rates.
Yes, when done correctly: you need explicit opt-in consent, all promotional messages must use Meta-approved Marketing-category templates, opt-outs must be honoured immediately, and you must comply with India's DPDP Act 2023 for data handling.
There's no absolute cap, but throughput is governed by your messaging tier- starting at 1,000/day (Tier 1), scaling to 10,000 (Tier 2), 1,00,000 (Tier 3), and unlimited based on quality and volume history.
Yes. WhatsApp Business API is not classified as commercial SMS under TRAI's regulations, so it's not subject to DND restrictions- as long as customers have given explicit opt-in consent.
WhatsApp broadcast via the consumer app is limited to 256 mutual contacts with no automation or analytics. WhatsApp marketing via the Business API has no contact limit and supports full automation, personalisation, and analytics. See WhatsApp Broadcast API.
Through website opt-in forms, Click-to-WhatsApp ads, WhatsApp Flows, SMS opt-in campaigns, offline point-of-sale consent, and in-app prompts. Get Click Media's onboarding includes an opt-in strategy review.
