WhatsApp Business Search is a feature for people to find businesses and start conversations with trusted, API accounts on WhatsApp.
At the moment this feature is available only in Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Colombia and the UK.
By typing the name of a verified business they want to contact, the user will see one or many business results, e.g type ‘american’ - ‘american express would display’.
Tapping on a result opens a chat view where a user can send the first message.
Do not turn ‘on’ visibility for accounts focused on marketing/promotions; but do turn ‘on’ visibility for the account(s) that support user-initiated messages.
Visibility can be managed:
Simplify your business presence to make it more appealing for consumers to get in touch by making visible one account with a brand-oriented display name.
Pros:
Highly marketable and promotable
Reduces overall number of templates
Cons:
Wider variety of use cases need preparation and management
Less ability to tailor initial response message to expected use cases
To ensure a high quality, confusion-free experience for people, duplicated display names will not be displayed. Review your display names and ensure those that you wish to be visible are change to a unique name and switch their visibility to “on”.
