The Twilio API for WhatsApp gives you a simple and reliable way to reach your users directly within the WhatsApp app.

The same API you use for SMS can now be used to send WhatsApp messages. All you need to do is update two lines of code. The API works seamlessly with TwiML and our helper libraries, allowing you to add WhatsApp to existing workflows or applications in minutes.
