Honest limits — what we do NOT promise for ecommerce in India

WhatsApp is not a checkout replacement for every brand. Configurable products with heavy size/variant selection still close better on a proper PDP. Payments inside WhatsApp (Meta Payments) are India-only in limited categories as of April 2026 — most brands still link out to Razorpay/PayU. Marketing templates cannot be promotional-only outside approved categories — first-purchase ads must go through CTWA, not cold broadcasts. And you still need a real returns/refund flow: WhatsApp handles communication, not your policy.

We are a Meta Business Partner, not a law firm — our platform supports your compliance posture but cannot substitute for local data-protection counsel on contract language, retention policies, or specific regulator filings.

India Ecommerce FAQ

Does WhatsApp work with Shopify out of the box?

Yes — Go4whatsup installs as a Shopify app. One-click OAuth, then abandoned-cart, COD confirmation, order dispatch, back-in-stock and post-purchase NPS flows are wired in the same install. No code, no middleware.

How much does WhatsApp cost per message for ecommerce?

You pay Meta's published conversation rates directly — Go4whatsup doesn't mark them up. In India, utility conversations (order confirmation, dispatch) are ~₹0.11–0.80 per conversation depending on volume tier. In UAE, same conversations are AED 0.021–0.040. Marketing templates cost more (~3–5× utility). Full matrix in our Meta Pricing Guide.

Will my cart recovery actually hit 15–25%?

For most Indian and GCC D2C brands with AOV > ₹1,500/AED 100, yes — provided the message goes out within 30–60 minutes and includes a discount + product image. Sub-₹500 AOV categories (kirana, hyperlocal) see lower recovery because the decision friction is lower to begin with.

Can I send marketing broadcasts to my existing customer list?

Only to customers who have a valid opt-in (explicit yes on a form, tick on Shopify checkout, or "reply YES" in-thread). WhatsApp is strict — broadcast without consent and Meta will rate-limit or suspend the number. Go4whatsup enforces consent tracking on every contact.

How do I avoid getting my WhatsApp number banned?

Three rules: only broadcast to opted-in contacts, keep spam-complaint rate under 0.5%, and use approved templates. Meta also rewards high "conversation quality" — reply rate above 20%. Go4whatsup surfaces these numbers in your admin dash and alerts before thresholds hit.

Do customers need to save my number to receive messages?

No. Once you're on WhatsApp Business API with a green tick (or just a verified business), messages arrive labeled with your business name. Customers don't need to save anything.

Can I send abandoned-cart messages to customers in the EU (GDPR)?

Yes, with explicit consent. Go4whatsup supports GDPR data-residency (EU data in EU region on request), publishes a DPA, and every contact has a consent timestamp + source. Opt-out is one-click and honored across the platform.

Is Go4whatsup GST-compliant?

Yes. We issue GST-compliant tax invoices with our GSTIN, HSN codes, and place-of-supply as required. PRO plan at AED 499/mo is invoiced as ₹11,000/mo inclusive of 18% GST where applicable.

Can you help with DPDPA consent?

Yes. Our platform captures, timestamps, and stores consent per DPDPA requirements — opt-in source, purpose, and revocation events are auditable. We do not, however, provide legal advice — please consult a data-protection counsel for contract language.

Do you support Indian regional languages?

Yes — English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Marathi, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Punjabi, Urdu, Odia, Assamese and more via native auto-translate. Customer writes in their language, agent sees English; agent replies in English, customer gets their language — both sides see their own.
