Connecting WhatsApp
Link your WhatsApp number via QR code, manage multiple numbers, and troubleshoot connection issues.
Connecting Your First Number
- Go to Dashboard → Integrations
- Click Connect WhatsApp
- Open WhatsApp on your phone → Settings → Linked Devices → Link a Device
- Scan the QR code displayed in Waslo
- Wait a few seconds — your status will change to Connected
Your phone number will appear in the dashboard once connected.
Multiple WhatsApp Numbers
On Growth and Agency plans, you can connect multiple WhatsApp numbers:
| Plan | Max Numbers | |------|-------------| | Starter | 1 | | Growth | 3 | | Agency | 10 |
To add another number:
- Go to Dashboard → Integrations
- Click Add Number
- Give it a label (e.g., "Sales", "Support")
- Scan the QR code with a different phone
Each number can have its own independent AI configuration on Growth+ plans.
Connection Status
Your WhatsApp connection can be in one of these states:
- Connected — Active and receiving messages
- Connecting — Establishing connection (may take up to 60 seconds)
- QR Pending — Waiting for you to scan the QR code
- Disconnected — Not connected, needs reconnection
- Logged Out — Session was logged out, needs fresh QR scan
Auto-Reconnect
Waslo automatically monitors your connections and will attempt to reconnect if a session drops unexpectedly. This runs every 2 minutes, so brief disconnections are handled automatically.
Troubleshooting
QR code not appearing?
- Refresh the page and try again
- Check your internet connection
Connection keeps dropping?
- Make sure your phone has a stable internet connection
- Don't log out of WhatsApp on your phone
- Avoid linking too many devices to the same WhatsApp number
"Banned" status?
- WhatsApp may restrict accounts that send too many messages too quickly
- Contact WhatsApp support to resolve account restrictions
- Waslo includes built-in rate limiting to prevent this
Disconnecting
To disconnect a number:
- Go to Dashboard → Integrations
- Click the Disconnect button next to the number
- The session will be saved — you can reconnect later without scanning a new QR code
To fully remove a number (clear all session data), use the Logout option instead.
