What it does

ImmiPractice connects a WhatsApp Business number through Meta’s official Cloud API using Embedded Signup. Conversations appear in a shared inbox linked to leads and cases, staff can send text, images and documents inside WhatsApp’s 24-hour window, submit message templates for Meta approval, and send broadcasts only to contacts who have opted in.

The problem

Client conversations live on personal phones. When a counsellor leaves, the history leaves too, and nobody can see what was promised.

Who uses it

Counsellors, calling teams and managers in WhatsApp-first markets.

Privacy & control

Connecting or disconnecting the number is limited to the Business Admin. Broadcast consent is recorded per contact.

How it works

  1. Connect

    Link your number through Meta’s Embedded Signup — registration happens automatically.

  2. Reply as a team

    Claim a conversation, reply, and send photos or documents; unread indicators update live.

  3. Template & broadcast

    Create templates, check Meta approval status and broadcast to opted-in contacts in safe batches.

  4. Keep the record

    Messages and files stay with the business, not a personal phone; documents can be saved to the case.

What your team sees

  • Shared inbox with live updates
  • Business profile editing (photo, about, website)
  • Broadcast progress: queued, sending, sent

What your client sees

  • They keep using WhatsApp as normal

Availability and scope: Included in the Standard plan. Requires a WhatsApp Business Platform number and Meta approval. WhatsApp team tracking is available as an add-on. — checked 22 October 2026.

Questions about whatsapp inbox & broadcasts

Is this the official WhatsApp API?

Yes. ImmiPractice uses Meta’s WhatsApp Cloud API, not unofficial web automation.

Can I post WhatsApp Status updates from the CRM?

No. Meta’s Cloud API does not offer Status posting. Approved templates and opted-in broadcasts are the supported way to reach many contacts.
