WhatsApp adds QR codes for businesses
Facebook is stepping up its eCommerce efforts on WhatsApp as they maximise the 2-billion active user base. As I've mentioned on WhatsApp's updates, they're rolling out QR codes for businesses. Here's a video on the new feature:
As in the video, WhatsApp users can use QR codes to connect to anyone, and can start message threads directly. WhatsApp:
"QR codes are a digital front door that make opening a chat with a business as easy as possible. Previously when people came across an interesting business, they had to add its WhatsApp number to their contacts, one number at a time. Now, people simply can scan the QR code a business displays on its storefront, product packaging or receipt to initiate a chat."
Businesses can use their WhatsApp QR codes, for example, on promotional materials to entice users to directly connect with the business.
What about you? Do you use WhatsApp for your business? Chime in.
