Instagram Introduces Click-to-WhatsApp Ads

All members of the Facebook family of apps are joining the eCommerce bandwagon. Facebook started innovating with business communication tools midway this September. Currently, the platform is testing automated quotes on Messenger. It is also working on a lead generation tool for Instagram Direct. Today, Instagram introduces click-to-WhatsApp ads.

WhatsApp has recently added new business features like carts, QR codes, and Shop buttons. Click-to-WhatsApp ads allow brands and businesses on Instagram to connect their Instagram profiles to WhatsApp. All you need to do is add a WhatsApp business number to your Instagram profile. Once connected, they can now boost IG ads and campaigns through click-to-WhatsApp ads. They can also streamline messages using WhatsApp’s automated responses and organization tools.
