How to use
- Enter a number with its country.
- Write the message.
- Copy the link or download the QR code.
Worked example
+44 7700 900123 with “Hi, is the table free on Friday?” becomes https://wa.me/447700900123?text=Hi%2C%20is%20the%20table%20free%20on%20Friday%3F
Supported formats and limits
| Input | Phone number, message |
|---|---|
| Output | Link, QR code (PNG/SVG) |
| Engine | libphonenumber-js validation; URL encoding; QR encoder |
Limitations
- The link opens WhatsApp only on devices where it is installed or WhatsApp Web is available.
- A valid-looking number does not prove it has a WhatsApp account. Numbers outside the national plan (such as UK 07700 900xxx drama numbers) get a link plus a warning.
Questions
What format does the number need?
Any common format works: spaces, brackets, dashes, a leading + or 00. The number is parsed with libphonenumber-js and written into the link as international digits without the +, as wa.me requires.
Does the link check that the number uses WhatsApp?
No. It checks length and the country's numbering plan only. Open the link yourself before sharing it.
