WhatsApp gives global marketing teams another way to expand their reach and connect with customers where they already spend their time. With more than 3 billion users worldwide, WhatsApp offers a mobile-first environment for rich, interactive conversations.
But adding another channel shouldn’t mean adding another disconnected conversation. When channels operate in isolation, marketers can lose the context of past interactions, making it harder to deliver a consistent, relevant customer experience.
With WhatsApp in Iterable, those conversations become part of a broader cross-channel engagement strategy. Marketers can bring the customer context already in Iterable into WhatsApp, keeping conversations connected across channels without losing what they already know about each customer.
Carry context across every channel
Because WhatsApp is native to Iterable, marketers can extend the context they already have across email, SMS, push, and other touchpoints into every WhatsApp interaction.
A single customer profile brings together past interactions, behaviors, and preferences, helping WhatsApp messages reflect what a customer has already seen, done, or expressed across their journey. And as customers engage on WhatsApp, those interactions become part of the same profile—adding new context that can inform what comes next on WhatsApp and across other channels.
Marketers can also create rich, interactive WhatsApp experiences with images, emojis, rich text, CTA buttons, and Quick Replies. Quick Replies give customers predefined responses they can tap instead of type, reducing friction while capturing first-party data that can further enrich customer context and inform future personalization.
Manage it all from one workspace
Expanding to WhatsApp doesn’t have to mean adding another disconnected workflow. WhatsApp fits into the cross-channel journeys already managed in Iterable, so teams can add a new way to reach customers without managing it in a separate platform.
Marketers can manage business onboarding, templates, campaigns, journeys, personalization, and performance within the same workspace, while built-in guidance helps streamline tasks like subscriber management, template creation, and compliance.
Turn reach into engagement across international markets
WhatsApp can help you with:
Engagement & conversion campaigns: Driving sales with business-initiated marketing alerts, flash product drops, personalized recommendations, and cart abandonment reminders.
Transactional & utility communications: Providing transactional updates such as order confirmations, delivery notifications, and interactive digital receipts.
Reactivation & first-party preference capture: Reigniting inactive user buckets through simple preference quizzes to naturally filter and gather first-party attributes for future segmentation.

Bringing WhatsApp natively into our cross-channel strategy has delivered immediate impact for ATG Entertainment. We achieved full project ROI on our very first campaign, consistently seeing 90–95% open rates and conversion rates two to three times higher than email. Having an interactive, rich-media channel directly within Iterable allows us to bypass overcrowded inboxes and drive real-time customer action.”
