WhatsApp Green Tick is a checkmark that helps people relate to your brand with trust and credibility.

WhatsApp API is offered by WhatsApp Business Solution Providers (BSPs) to help businesses build a variety of business applications for promotion and selling products and services on WhatsApp. Unlike WhatsApp Business, which is suited to small business needs for reaching out to prospects, with WhatsApp API, businesses can create an entire ecosystem of applications, such as Chatbots and CRMs, for business promotion. Businesses can leverage WhatsApp's huge user base to connect with customers to drive sales or deliver great customer service.
