WhatsApp punishes carelessness quickly. One bad broadcast can drop your quality rating and cut messaging limits for weeks, so consent and relevance are commercial concerns, not compliance chores.
01
Design the opt-in
Collect consent at checkout, on the site widget and through click-to-WhatsApp ads, with clear expectations of what and how often you will send. Documented, contextual opt-in is the single best protection for your sender quality.
02
Template strategy
Utility templates for order and service updates, marketing templates for offers — kept separate so transactional trust is never spent on promotions. Every template is tested against a small segment before a full broadcast.
03
Cadence and segmentation
Send fewer, better-targeted messages. Recency and purchase-behaviour segments consistently outperform full-list blasts on both conversion and block rate.
