WhatsApp Business API for businesses in the UAE.

Run sales, support and campaigns on WhatsApp in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and across the Emirates — with a shared team inbox, Arabic and English chatbots, and Meta’s official message rates with 0% markup.

Can UAE businesses use WhatApsi?Yes. WhatApsi runs on Meta’s official WhatsApp Business Platform (Cloud API), which works for businesses registered in the UAE. You connect a UAE number, verify your business with Meta, and your team replies from one shared inbox. Meta charges per delivered template message at its UAE rates, which WhatApsi passes through without markup.

What UAE businesses use WhatsApp for

Real estate enquiries

Answer portal and ad leads instantly, share floor plans and book viewings in the chat.

Retail and e-commerce

Order confirmations, delivery updates, cash-on-delivery confirmation and cart reminders.

Clinics and salons

Appointment booking, reminders and rescheduling without phone calls.

Travel and tourism

Built for a two-language market

Most UAE customers switch between Arabic and English. WhatApsi lets you serve both from one number.

  • Message templates can be created and approved in Arabic as well as English.
  • Chatbot flows can ask for a language at the start and continue in Arabic or English.
  • AI replies answer from your own FAQs and price list, and hand over to an agent when needed.
  • Click-to-WhatsApp ads on Instagram and Facebook start chats that land straight in your team inbox.

UAE questions

Also see WhatsApp Business API in India, the UK and the USA.

Can I use a UAE mobile number for the WhatsApp Business API?

Yes. Any number that can receive a verification SMS or call can be connected, as long as it isn’t active on another WhatsApp account at the same time. We help you move an existing number or start with a new one.

Does WhatsApp support Arabic message templates?

Yes. Meta supports Arabic as a template language, so you can send approved marketing, utility and authentication templates in Arabic, English or both.

How much does WhatsApp charge per message in the UAE?

Meta charges per delivered template message, by category and by the recipient’s country. UAE marketing messages cost more than utility or authentication messages. Rates change from time to time, so ask us for the current UAE rate card — WhatApsi adds no markup.

Can one account serve customers in both the UAE and India?

Yes. One WhatsApp number can message customers in any country WhatsApp supports. Meta charges each message at the rate for the recipient’s country.
