Use cases

Six things your shop does every day — now on WhatsApp.

Everything below is shipped as a Meta-approved template. You don't write a single message.

Invoice on bill

PDF invoice + UPI payment link sent the second the cashier hits save. Customer doesn't need to ask for a copy.

Order tracking

Order placed → packed → dispatched → delivered. Each status with the courier's live tracking link.

Payment-due reminders

Polite, scheduled nudges — 3, 7, 14 days before due. One-tap UPI link in every message.

Festival & promo broadcasts

Bulk-send Onam, Diwali and end-of-season offers to opted-in customer lists. Templates pre-approved by Meta.

Two-way support

Customer replies land in a shared inbox inside the ERP. Assign, snooze, escalate — no separate help-desk tool.

Loyalty & reorder nudges

Auto-detect repeat-purchase patterns and send a friendly ‘running low?’ with a 1-click reorder button.

How it works

From sign-up to first message — two business days.

  1. 01

    Connect your number

    Use the Meta Embedded Signup flow to add your business phone number. Or use a new dedicated number we'll help you procure.

  2. 02

    Pick approved templates

    We ship 12+ Meta-approved templates tuned for retail, distribution and service. Pick the ones you need, rebrand the wording, done.

  3. 03

    Map ERP events to templates

    ‘Invoice saved’ → send invoice template. ‘Order dispatched’ → send tracking template. Each rule is a single dropdown.

  4. 04

    TechAge does the rest

    Messages send automatically on the events you mapped. Replies route to your inbox. You watch deliverability in a real-time dashboard.

Pre-approved templates

FAQ

Everything we get asked about WhatsApp for Business.

Yes. The Meta Embedded Signup flow lets you migrate an existing WhatsApp Business number to the API in a few clicks — you keep the contact card, chat history is not affected. If you want a dedicated business line, we'll help you procure one.
No. WhatsApp Business API is a separate channel from the personal app. Your customers see a business account — with logo, address, website — and an optional green-tick if you're verified.
No. TechAge ships 12 Meta-approved templates covering invoices, order tracking, reminders, broadcasts, support and loyalty. You rebrand the wording — we manage Meta approvals for any custom additions.
Yes, with consent. WhatsApp's policy requires explicit opt-in from each recipient. TechAge captures opt-ins automatically on first interaction and tracks them per customer — you stay compliant by default.
Meta charges per 24-hour conversation, not per message. In India, utility conversations (invoices, OTPs, alerts) are around ₹ 0.30 each; marketing conversations around ₹ 0.78–0.90. Service replies in a 24-hour window are free. We pass through Meta's billing with no markup.
Replies route into a shared inbox inside TechTrade ERP. You can assign conversations, escalate, snooze, see customer order history alongside the chat, and respond from desktop or mobile. No separate helpdesk tool needed.
It's rare and almost always linked to template misuse (spam-flagged content, missing opt-in). We monitor your quality rating in real-time, alert you if it dips, and work with Meta to restore numbers if needed. We've handled this for clients — same-day resolution typical.
