How to take opt-in from users?
There are various methods to take opt-in from users.
1. Have a checkmark in the lead contact form on your landing page taking consent and opt-in from users.
2. Send SMS and E-mail campaigns for opt-in.
Will my number get blocked by WhatsApp if I send too many broadcast messages?
This entirely depends on the Quality Rating. If your quality rating goes down, you’ll receive a warning notification from your FB Business manager.
