Summary of WhatsApp Link Shortcuts (Tutorial/Guide)

Using WhatsApp Business “Short link” (built-in)

  • Go to WhatsApp Business Settings.
  • Find the Short link option.
  • From there, you can:
    • Share the link
    • Copy it
    • Generate/display a QR code
  • The link can be previewed.
  • You can set the contents/message that will open when the link is used.
  • Limitation noted: the default shortcut for WhatsApp Business is available only for one item/message, which becomes inconvenient if you have many products (you’d need to replace them one by one).

Shortcut to “Chat directly”

  • Another built-in shortcut described as linking to a direct chat.
  • It’s positioned as a way to contact the business quickly, but it still doesn’t solve the multi-product scaling problem as well as desired.

Shortcut link to a specific product (Product Catalog)

  • Use the product catalog area (as mentioned previously).
  • Select a product and use Share link.
  • The generated link will open directly to the specific product being sold.
  • Presented as the “second option” alongside the chat-direct shortcuts.

Using unofficial link generators (for bulk links)

  • The tutorial suggests searching Google for an unofficial WhatsApp link shortcut generator.
  • Goal: create many WhatsApp links for one phone number, where each link is tied to different products.
  • Example tool referenced: create.link
    • Use the free version
    • Enter the phone number
    • Fill in the message template
    • A preview of the link appears immediately

Key Takeaways

  • Official WhatsApp Business short links are convenient (copy/share/QR, message presets) but limited for multiple products.
  • For per-product direct links, the Product Catalog “Share link” approach is highlighted.
  • For bulk/multi-link creation, the tutorial recommends unofficial generator tools (e.g., create.link).

Main Speakers / Sources

  • Speaker: Unspecified individual (single presenter using phrases like “Okay guys…” / “friends…” throughout).
  • Tools/Resources mentioned:
    • WhatsApp Business Settings
    • create.link (unofficial link generator)
    • Google search (to find more generators)
