Now the company has a new feature that might change that.<\/p>\n<p>Meta announced that it\u2019s rolling out the Whats<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">App<\/a> Cloud API to all businesses worldwide, which has been in beta testing since November. The functionality allows companies to integrate WhatsApp messages from customers or clients into their back-end systems. For example, someone could send a message to a local computer repair shop about their broken laptop, which could then be automatically added to the shop\u2019s task system, and someone from the shop could message back with answers about the repair.<\/p>\n<p>Importantly, Meta will charge businesses to use the cloud APIs, which is part of the company\u2019s long-term goal of monetizing the app without upsetting users. Meta tried to place advertisements in the app a few years ago, which <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2018\/09\/26\/whatsapp-co-founder-explains-why-he-left-facebook.html\">caused<\/a> one of WhatsApp\u2019s co-founders to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaltrends.com\/social-media\/whatsapp-co-founder-jan-koum-announces-departure\/\">leave the company in 2018<\/a>. Meta <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/whatsapp-backs-off-controversial-plan-to-sell-ads-11579207682\">reportedly gave up placing ads in WhatsApp<\/a> in late 2019.<\/p>\n<p>The good <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> is that, as long as businesses are willing to pay up for chat tools, WhatsApp will <em>probably<\/em> keep working the same for normal people. Plans are always changing, but for the moment, Meta doesn\u2019t have any (public) intentions to put Facebook or Instagram-like advertisements in WhatsApp.<\/p>\n<p>This new business product isn\u2019t completely new \u2014 it\u2019s just a cloud version of the WhatsApp Business API, which was also a paid product for companies. However, Meta expects more groups will use the new cloud option, since it runs entirely on Meta\u2019s servers (companies don\u2019t have to host their own) and can supposedly be set up within a few minutes.<\/p>\n<p>WhatApp\u2019s new tools for business are also helpful for customers. Companies can use it set up automated quick replies, greeting messages, FAQs, away messaging, and other options. At the very least, it should give you a slightly-better experience than an automated customer support phone call.<\/p>\n<p><small>Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/05\/19\/whatsapp-ramps-up-revenue-with-global-launch-of-cloud-api-and-soon-a-paid-tier-for-its-business-app\/\">TechCrunch<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
