Click to Chat — a WhatsApp button for your site

Free plugin

Your customers, one tap away on WhatsApp

A green button in the corner of every page. Visitors tap it and WhatsApp opens with a message already written to you: a question about a room, a table, a product.

Based on Joinchat by Creame, brought to Cleitext.

Click to Chat

Talk to your customers

The chat they already use

No forms to fill in, no emails waiting for an answer: people write to you where they write to everyone.

A button on every page

In a corner of the screen, in your color, with a short tip like “Need help?” and, if you like, the photo of who answers.

A warm welcome

A small chat window greets visitors with your messages, before they open WhatsApp. It can also open by itself after a few seconds.

The message is ready

WhatsApp opens with a text already written, even with the page the visitor comes from. So you know at once what they are asking about.

The right number

Each page can have its own number and messages: bookings to reception, orders to the shop. Or no button at all.

A button inside your pages

With the WhatsApp button block, put a “Write to us” button right where it helps, like under your prices or menu.

The WhatsApp chat window open on a B&B home page

On your site

A friendly hello, then WhatsApp

The green button waits in a corner. A tap opens a small chat window with your welcome message, then WhatsApp with the text you prepared.

Click to Chat settings: number, first message and tooltip

Settings

Your number, your words

Enter your WhatsApp number, the first message for the visitor and a tooltip. Choose where the button shows, its colour and when the chat window opens by itself.

Privacy and results

See how many write to you

The Dashboard shows the clicks on WhatsApp day by day. Only counts: nothing about your visitors is kept, and the button uses no cookies.

  • Clicks per day, without bots and repeated clicks
  • No cookies
  • A privacy notice in the chat window, to accept if you want
  • Works with Google Analytics and Google Ads too

Get started

Ready in a few minutes

Install it

In Plugins → Add New, find Click to Chat, then click Install and Activate.

Enter your number

In Settings → Click to Chat, write your WhatsApp number with the country code. The button appears on the site.

Make it yours

In the same page, choose the color, the tip, the welcome messages and the pages where it shows.

Questions

Do I need WhatsApp Business?

No. The button opens a chat with your number, so it works with the WhatsApp you already use.

Does it need a cookie banner?

The button uses no cookies, and the click counter keeps nothing about your visitors.

Can different pages use different numbers?

Yes. When you edit a page or a post, the WhatsApp button box lets you set another number and other messages, or hide the button there.

What do visitors on a computer see?

A QR code over the button: they scan it with their phone and the chat opens there. You can choose WhatsApp Web instead.
