\n

Continue the customer conversation in voice<\/h2>\n\n

Some requests need more explanation than a message can comfortably carry. WhatsApp Calling gives eligible business journeys a route from chat to voice, with a clear call purpose and an operational handover around the conversation.<\/p>\n\n

\n
\n
\n

User-initiated calling<\/h3>\n\n

Let customers call the business through the supported WhatsApp experience. Connect the incoming call with the service routing and agent setup defined for your operation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

Business-initiated calling<\/h3>\n\n

Build an outbound call journey around the customer\u2019s required calling permission. Confirm eligibility and permission before placing the call.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n
\n

Explain complex requests<\/h3>\n\n

A live conversation can help customers clarify a complicated issue. Use the call for a defined objective instead of asking them to repeat the full enquiry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

Prepare the receiving team<\/h3>\n\n

Share the reason for calling and useful references through the scoped service workflow. Better context helps the agent focus on resolution.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n
\n

Keep permission part of the journey<\/h3>\n\n

For business-initiated calls, requesting and checking permission belongs before the call. Avoid treating a messaging relationship as automatic permission to call.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

Close the loop after the call<\/h3>\n\n

Capture the outcome, assign any follow-up, and send an appropriate written update where needed. A call should advance the case rather than create another disconnected interaction.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Choose the right route from chat to voice.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
