Can I send WhatsApp offers to a phone list I bought?

No. WhatsApp's business policy lets you contact only people who gave you their number and agreed to get messages from you. A bought list does not meet that.

• You need two things for each person: they gave you their number, and they opted in to messages from you.
• The policy makes no allowance for bought, rented, scraped or third-party lists.
• Build your own list from people who ordered, scanned your QR code or asked to hear from you.
• Say clearly what they will receive, such as offers or order updates, and give an easy way to opt out.
