๐ How to reduce the risk of WhatsApp restrictions
Incorrect or excessive campaign use can put your WhatsApp account at risk. Follow these safeguards:
- Avoid using your primary number or a newly activated number.
- Prefer a number with at least one month of ongoing conversations.
- For your first marketing campaign, use an interval of at least 30โ45 [Verify: seconds or minutes].
- Do not send daily or repetitive messages that could annoy customers.
- Add an opt-out option so customers can unsubscribe from marketing messages.
- Do not use the service with modified versions of WhatsApp, including WhatsApp Plus.
- Avoid random sending.
- Use the longest practical interval between campaign messages.
- Avoid including many links in one message.
- Use a number that is active in real conversations.
- Send messages to customers you have contacted before and who are interested in the content.
- Increase sending volume gradually instead of sending a large batch on the first day.
- Do not send a large number of messages in one day.
- Continue interacting with customers regularly.
- Remember that customer reports are a primary cause of account restrictions, so avoid repeated unwanted messages.
