How to offer appointment bookings on WhatsApp Business Platform

Ensure your customers can easily reach you

Offer multiple points of entry so that customers can instantly reach out to your business when they are ready to book an appointment. Opt-in entry points include:

  • Scannable QR codes
  • Click to WhatsApp ads on Facebook or Instagram
  • WhatsApp buttons on your website

Let customers book appointments instantly within the app over a chatbot or with a live agent

With a chatbot, WhatsApp appointment bookings are automated and made simple with list messages that provide customers with a variety of timeslots to choose from:

  • Customers send an initial message inquiring about booking an appointment
  • A chatbot replies with a list of available time slots the customer can choose from
  • The customer chooses a time slot
  • The chatbot confirms the booking
  • Let your agent take over at any time if necessary

Alternatively, if the list of available timeslots don’t correspond with your customer’s schedule, they can easily be transferred to a live agent who can take over the conversation and assist with finalizing a booking time.
