Connect a WhatsApp Business number to a property and guest WhatsApp messages land in the Chats tab, alongside your other guest conversations. You set this up from the property’s Integrations settings: open the property’s Settings, then tap Integrations. WhatsApp is the first card under the Messaging section.

​
Before you start

  • You need a WhatsApp Business account (a Meta business) and a phone number you can use for WhatsApp. The number must not already be in use on a personal WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business app.
  • The connection is set up through Meta’s official sign-up flow, which opens in your device browser. Have your Meta login handy.

Connect a number

1

Open Integrations

From the property’s Settings, tap Integrations. The WhatsApp card sits under Messaging and shows its current status.
2

Start the connection

Tap Connect WhatsApp. Superhost opens Meta’s sign-up flow in your device browser.
3

Sign up with Meta

In the browser, sign in to Meta and follow the steps to choose your WhatsApp Business account and the number you want to use. This part runs on Meta’s pages, not in Superhost.

Return to the app

When you finish, you come back to the app. Superhost checks the result and confirms with WhatsApp connected. The card then shows an active status and the Connected number.If the setup wasn’t completed, you’ll see a message asking you to tap Connect to try again — nothing is linked until Meta reports the number as active.
The sign-up runs in your device browser because Meta’s flow can’t run inside the app. If you close the browser or cancel partway through, no number is linked — just tap Connect WhatsApp again to restart.

​
What “connected” looks like

When a number is linked, the WhatsApp card shows:
  • An active status badge.
  • The Connected number in international format.
  • A Manage on WhatsApp Business link that opens Meta’s WhatsApp Manager, where the display name, profile photo, and quality rating live.

​
Where guest messages go

Once WhatsApp is connected, messages guests send to that number arrive in the Chats tab as guest conversations, so you can reply from the same place as the rest of your guest messaging.

​
Reconnecting or fixing a connection

If the number ever needs re-linking, the card’s button changes:
  • Reconnect repeats the sign-up flow for an already-linked number.
  • Retry connection appears if the last attempt ended in an error. The card also shows the reason under Last attempt failed.
Use Manage on WhatsApp Business to update the display name, profile photo, or check the number’s quality rating — those are managed by Meta, not in Superhost.
