What is a good “order direct and save” offer for WhatsApp?
Updated 30 September 2026
Offer something only direct orders get, such as a small discount or free delivery on your own ordering link, and fund it with the commission you no longer pay an app.
- Keep it to one line a customer can repeat: a percentage off, free delivery or a free item on orders from your own link.
- Apply it at checkout, by code or automatically, so nobody has to negotiate the price in chat.
- An offer message is marketing and needs the customer's agreement: ₹0.8631 per delivered message in India, AED 0.2115 in the UAE.
- WhatsApp doesn't currently deliver marketing template messages to US phone numbers, so reach US customers through Status or your link.
