Overview

Bugalou offers two free tools to help you drive WhatsApp conversations from any channel — physical or digital. Both tools are publicly accessible and don't require a Bugalou account.

WhatsApp Link Generator

Visit /en/whatsapp-link-generator to create a click-to-chat link.

How to Use

1. Enter your phone number — type your WhatsApp number with country code, without the + sign (e.g. 31612345678 for a Dutch number)
2. Add a welcome message (optional) — pre-fill a message that opens in the chat (e.g. "Hi, I'd like to know more about your products!")
3. Click "Generate Link" — your personalized wa.me link is created

The Generated Link

The tool generates a link in this format: https://wa.me/31612345678?text=Your+message+here

You can:

• Copy Link — copies the link to your clipboard
• Test Link — opens the link in a new tab to verify it works

Where to Use It

• Website buttons ("Chat with us on WhatsApp")
• Email signatures
• Social media bios (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn)
• Ad campaigns

WhatsApp QR Code Generator

Visit /en/whatsapp-qr-generator to create a scannable QR code.

How to Use

1. Enter your phone number — with country code, without +
2. Add a pre-filled message (optional)
3. Click "Generate WhatsApp QR Code" — a 400×400 pixel QR code appears

Download & Share

Click "Download QR Code" to save the QR code as a PNG image. Print it or share it digitally.

Where to Use It

• Business cards & stationery
• Posters & flyers in your physical store
• Product packaging
• Event materials & trade show booths
• Social media posts and stories

Pro Tip

Combine both tools: add the WhatsApp link to your digital channels and the QR code to your physical materials. This way, customers can reach you from anywhere — and every conversation becomes an opportunity.
