WhatsApp Carts

WhatsApp Carts lets users buy products via the chat app

WhatsApp shopping carts will be available all over the world, allowing you to send orders easily.

WhatsApp has implemented shopping carts for businesses, offering a new intuitive experience for users that allows companies to keep track of orders and increase their sales.

Buying stuff may be a feature we are all used to at most online stores, but the shopping cart hasn’t featured in WhatsApp messaging app until now. WhatsApp has quickly realized adding a cart made a lot of sense following the introduction of Catalogues, which allowed users to easily and quickly view what was available from a business using the app to promote their goods.

WhatsApp says:

“Starting today, we’re excited to bring carts to WhatsApp. Carts are great when messaging businesses that typically sell multiple items at once, like a local restaurant or clothing store. With carts, people can browse a catalog, select multiple products and send the order as one message to the business.
