Yes, you can integrate WhatsApp into a Webflow site to enable direct messaging or customer support interaction. This is typically done via a clickable link or button that opens a WhatsApp chat.
1. Use a Click-to-Chat WhatsApp Link
- Create a URL using this format:
https://wa.me/<phonenumber>
.
Example: https://wa.me/15551234567
(use your full international number without + or dashes). - Optionally add a pre-filled message using
?text=yourmessage
.
Example: https://wa.me/15551234567?text=Hello%20I%20have%20a%20question
.
- Drag a Button or Link Block into the desired section on your page.
- Go to Element Settings and add your WhatsApp link to the URL field.
- Set the link to open in a new tab if you want users to stay on your site.
3. Use a WhatsApp Icon
- Add an Image or Font Awesome icon inside your button or link to clearly indicate it’s for WhatsApp.
- Make sure it's branded correctly using green (#25D366) and WhatsApp’s chat icon standards.
- Platforms like Elfsight, GetButton, or Chaty offer embeddable widgets with WhatsApp integration.
- You typically:
- Configure the widget on the third-party site.
- Copy the provided embed code.
- Paste it into a Webflow Embed element on your site.
Summary
To integrate WhatsApp into Webflow, use a click-to-chat URL with a button or icon, or consider a third-party widget for advanced features. Both methods are fully supported by Webflow’s no-code tools.
