With over 2 billion active users for businesses it’s not easy to handle all of your customers with a single WhatsApp account. It’s impossible to reply instantly when your team has to handle a huge volume of incoming customer queries.

Lets go a little deeper and explore how you can streamline your efforts with multiple users on WhatsApp.

 

How to set up Multiple users on WhatsApp Business?

As it is possible to setup WhatsApp Business with 4 devices at once here’s how you can set it up in 3 ways:

1. Steps to setup multiple users on WhatsApp Business Android

• Go to WhatsApp > More Options > Linked Devices.

• Choose “Link A Device”.

• Unlock your device:

• For devices with biometric authentication, follow the on-screen instructions.

• If biometric authentication is not enabled, enter your device PIN when prompted.

• Hold your phone in front of the target device’s screen to scan the displayed QR code.

2. Steps to setup Multiple users on WhatsApp Business iOs

• Go to WhatsApp > Settings.

• Tap on “Linked Devices.”

• Select “Link a Device” to begin the linking process.

• Unlock your phone (for iOS 14 or above):

• Use Touch ID or Face ID for authentication.

• If biometric authentication is not enabled, enter your device PIN.

• Hold your iPhone in front of the target device’s screen to scan the QR code.

3. Steps to setup multi-user login with WhatsApp Business API 

• Access your WhatsApp Business API account with Interakt.

• Navigate to the user management section.

• Click on “Add User”.
