Connect WhatsApp for outreach

A connected WhatsApp account that can send messages and start new chats as part of your campaigns.

CLIENT-ONLY · How-To

Outcome

A WhatsApp account connected and ready to use in campaign steps.

Go to Settings and open the Accounts tab.
Click Connect WhatsApp. A QR code appears.
On your phone, open WhatsApp, go to Settings, then Linked devices, then Link a device, and scan the QR code shown in Wiggli.
Once linked, the account shows Connected.

The account shows Connected. A WhatsApp step can be added to a campaign. Daily limits show in the builder when you add WhatsApp steps.

Connection drops. WhatsApp limits active linked sessions. Reconnect from Settings.
Limits feel low. New accounts use lower warm-up caps for 14 days. See LinkedIn and WhatsApp outreach limits.
Messages going out in bursts. They shouldn’t. Wiggli paces sends with a 20-60 second gap by default.

WhatsApp lands best as a follow-up after a candidate has shown interest, not a cold first touch.
It’s a high-trust channel. A poorly targeted WhatsApp message damages reputation faster than a poorly targeted email.
Pick the number that matches how you work. Some recruiters connect the WhatsApp on their personal phone; others use a separate work phone with its own WhatsApp number for business contacts. Both work. The trade-off: candidates reply on whichever number you connect, so connect the one you actually want to be reachable on.
Replies arrive in WhatsApp on your phone, on the same number you connected.
