Inbox

One WhatsApp number, your whole team answering it

The WhatsApp Business app allows one phone and up to a handful of linked devices. A shared inbox on the API removes that ceiling and, more importantly, keeps the conversation history with the business rather than on someone’s handset.

What is a WhatsApp shared inbox?

A WhatsApp shared inbox lets multiple agents handle conversations on a single WhatsApp Business API number at the same time. WappBlaster provides assignment, filters, tags, canned replies, roles and permissions, department-based routing with schedules, and a chat resolution form. Because conversations live on the platform rather than a personal phone, history stays with the business when staff change.

Capabilities

What you get

Everything here is documented and shipping today, not on a roadmap.

Unlimited agents, no per-seat fee

Add every person who needs to answer. Most competitors price per agent, which quietly punishes you for staffing support properly.

Roles and permissions

Define what each role can see and do, including session configuration, so an agent cannot export the whole contact database on their last day.

Departments with schedules

Route to sales, support or accounts, with per-department availability and agent scheduling so out-of-hours chats are handled differently.

Filters and tags in live chat

Slice the queue by tag, assignment or status, which is what makes a busy inbox workable rather than a wall of unread.

Canned and quick replies

Saved answers for the questions that make up most of the volume, inserted in a keystroke.

Chat resolution form

Capture the outcome when a chat closes, so conversations become reportable data instead of anecdotes.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about WhatsApp shared inbox.

Can multiple people use one WhatsApp Business number?

On the WhatsApp Business app, only through linked devices, which is capped and awkward. On the WhatsApp Business API with a shared inbox there is no such limit: as many agents as you need work the same number simultaneously, each with their own login.

Do you charge per agent?

No. Agents are unlimited on the flat annual platform fee. This is one of the biggest cost differences against providers that tier by seat.

Link to this answer
What happens to chats when an employee leaves?

Nothing is lost. Conversations live on the platform, so you revoke the person’s access and reassign their open chats. Compare that with a number on a personal phone, where the history walks out with them.

Link to this answer
Can I still use the WhatsApp app on my phone for this number?

No. Once a number is registered to the WhatsApp Business API it cannot also be used in the consumer or Business app. Agents work through the inbox instead, on desktop or mobile browser.
