Social media accounts, in general, have a unique link that you share with others so that they can connect with you. You can do the same with WhatsApp as well by creating WhatsApp profile links. You can then proceed to use the profile link to share your WhatsApp account number with others. The recipient simply needs to open the profile link to connect directly with you on WhatsApp. Let’s look at 5 different ways to find and send someone your WhatsApp link.
WhatsApp accounts do not have a username. Your phone number actually acts as your username or unique ID. If you want to connect with someone on WhatsApp, you can simply share your phone number with them.
Normally they would need to save your phone number to their contacts in order to message you. For that, they must open the WhatsApp app, tap on the new chat button, and find your contact. Nevertheless, it’s possible to also WhatsApp someone without saving the phone number and you can learn how by reading our earlier article on the matter.
WhatsApp allows users to create a unique link for their number. This is possible using the WhatsApp’s Click-to-chat feature. The unique link is your WhatsApp profile link and you must share this link with others so that they can connect with you.
To generate your profile link, you must use the https://wa.me/WhatsAppnumber template, where “WhatsAppnumber” is your phone number in the international format i.e., country code (without zero, dashes, brackets, or +sign) + actual phone number.
For example:
me/914234567890, where 91 is the country code of India and 4234567890 is the phone number.Once you have your unique WhatsApp link, simply copy-paste and send it to others via WhatsApp, e-mail, add it in Instagram stories, or send it via any other app of your choice. The other person simply needs to click on the link and your WhatsApp chat will open.
If you aren’t confident about creating your WhatsApp profile link yourself as shown in the above method, you can generate WhatsApp links online using third-party tools. With these tools, you simply need to input your country code and phone number, and they will create your WhatsApp profile link within seconds. You can also add a message that others will see when they contact you.
Other WhatsApp link generators that you can try are:
Unlike regular WhatsApp, WhatsApp Business offers a built-in feature to generate a unique link for your WhatsApp number. Just share the WhatsApp Business short link with others so that they can connect with you on WhatsApp.
Pro Tip: At any time, if you want to block the current profile link so that no one can message you using the link, tap on the three-dot icon at the top and choose “Reset link”.
The existing link will become non-functional. You must then create share a new link with others.
Did you know that WhatsApp has a native feature to generate QR code for your WhatsApp number? Surprised? Well, you are not alone. WhatsApp hasn’t marketed the QR code feature much. But that’s what we are here for. You can easily create, share, and scan WhatsApp QR codes all within WhatsApp itself on both Android and iPhone.
Note: You can generate QR codes on WhatsApp Business as well.
You can use the regular methods to scan the WhatsApp QR code such as the Camera app, Google Lens (Android | iOS), etc., or navigate back to QR code screen on WhatsApp and tap on the Scan code tab.
If you are an admin of a WhatsApp group, you can create and share a link to your WhatsApp group as well. Anyone with the link can then request to join the group.
Tip: Learn how to find WhatsApp group link on PC.
No, it’s not possible give your WhatsApp to someone without them knowing your phone number. Sure, you can send the QR code but that will eventually show the number in WhatsApp.
If you delete a contact from your phone, they can still see and message you on WhatsApp. But you can definitely control the privacy settings and restrict them from seeing your profile picture, last seen, and status.
First, find and copy your WhatsApp profile link as shown above. Then, open the Instagram app and go to your profile. Tap on “Edit profile” underneath your profile picture. Paste the copied link in the website section.

A link on Instagram to WhatsApp, Viber or another messenger will allow subscribers to write to you in 1 click.
If only a phone number is added when creating an account on Instagram, the subscriber will have to take extra steps. To contact you, he needs to save the number, open the messenger, find you and only then write. In the process, some potential customers fall off. I didn’t have time or forgot to save the number, they distracted me, changed my mind, accidentally closed the page - minus the sale. The WhatsApp Chat link cuts those steps down to two steps - click and write a message. Less unnecessary actions - more calls and applications.

Hello friends. Today we’ll talk about how to make an active link to Telegram, Whatsapp and Viber, that is, to your profiles or groups in these wonderful (and not so) messengers.
These are links similar to telephone or mail links, when clicking on them opens your mail application or dialed number.
A similar operation can be done with instant messengers. Many actively use them (links to instant messengers) in building auto funnels and they say that such mobile landing pages have an incredible conversion.
Messengers are very popular.
Many start channels and publics, since information can be delivered directly to the phone of the target audience, and even a push notification, which means that the user will definitely see your message.
In addition, by leaving such a link on our site, we allow you to write to us, because for many a call is stressful, writing a message is much easier. But that's not all, because for some it is unprofitable to call from region to region, or from country to country, and messengers will make the call free.
Problems start at the moment when you need to support both the mobile version and the desktop version, that is, in 99% of cases. The fact is that the phone application and the computer application work with different links, and it turns out that if you specify a link for a smartphone, the PC application will not work correctly or not work at all. This applies to the Viber messenger, while WhatsApp and Telegram do not experience such problems.
In addition, not everyone knows exactly how the link should look in order for it to open applications. So that you don’t have to search on different sites, I made this article with instructions on how to correctly set an active link on the site so that when you click on it, the messenger opens and immediately sends the user to a chat with you.
Let's figure out how the "href" attribute should look like for links to a particular messenger.
As I already said, there are no problems with this wonderful messenger in terms of linking. The main thing is to write the value in the href attribute correctly. To do this, just use the template:
Send in Telegram
"NikName" is the username that you set in Telegram. The one with the @ symbol. In my case, this is @Dimadv, but you need to insert it without "@". So:
Send in Telegram
There are no problems with linking to your profile in the WhatsApp messenger either.
In addition, it is even possible to add a default text that will already be typed and the user will only have to send it.
The link should look like this:
Where:
Here, as you can see, everything is also quite simple.
When linking to Viber, you need to take into account some features. The point is that desktop and mobile applications perceive the "+" symbol differently. In this regard, there used to be problems in order to set a different link for different devices and I wrote code that replaced the link depending on the type of this device, but one of the readers suggested a different approach. Thank you for sharing these solutions with me.
