Topic 01 · Expert Guide

What is a WhatsApp CRM?

A WhatsApp CRM is customer relationship software that is built around WhatsApp conversations. Instead of copying chat details into a spreadsheet or a separate CRM, each customer's profile, message history, tags and deal stage sit next to the chat itself.

Implementation Takeaways

It runs on the official WhatsApp Business API, not on the WhatsApp Business app on one phone. That means several team members can reply from the same number, every message is stored against the right contact, and you can send approved template messages, broadcasts and automated replies within Meta's rules.

How do sales and support teams use a CRM with WhatsApp?

Sales management. Capture leads from WhatsApp chats, add them to the pipeline, track the conversation and engagement, move each deal through its stages, and record the outcome when it closes.

Implementation Takeaways

Contact management. Open any customer and see their profile, their full conversation history, their preferences and attributes. Update the record as you talk so the next agent has the right context.

Customer insights. See where customers come from, how the base is growing, and which channels and campaigns bring the most engaged leads, so you can decide where to spend time and budget.

Topic 04 · Expert Guide

What does a WhatsApp CRM look like for a Singapore or UAE business?

The examples below are illustrations of how the features fit together, not customer case studies.

Implementation Takeaways

A tuition centre in Singapore. Parents ask about class times on WhatsApp. Each enquiry becomes a contact, tagged by level and subject. A chatbot collects the student's level and preferred slot, the enquiry appears as a lead in the pipeline, and a staff member confirms the trial class from the shared inbox. Before any promotional message goes to a +65 number, the centre checks its Do Not Call obligations under Singapore's PDPA.

A furniture showroom in Dubai. Shoppers click a Click-to-WhatsApp ad on Instagram. Each chat is tagged with the product they asked about, the sales team moves the lead from enquiry to quotation to order, and a payment link is sent in the chat. Under Meta's rules, a conversation that starts from a Click-to-WhatsApp ad opens a free entry window of up to 7 days if the business replies within the service window.

A trading company serving both markets. One Ownchat workspace handles WhatsApp and Instagram for both countries. Contacts are tagged by country, broadcasts are scheduled for each time zone, and deals sync to Zoho CRM so management sees one pipeline.

Topic 05 · Expert Guide

Does Ownchat offer a Zoho CRM WhatsApp integration?

Yes. Ownchat is a Zoho Partner and connects to Zoho CRM through one-click OAuth inside the Ownchat dashboard, with no coding. After that you set lead routing rules, pipeline stage triggers, custom module mappings and message templates.

Implementation Takeaways

For smaller teams on Zoho Bigin, a separate integration captures WhatsApp chats as Bigin contacts, sends WhatsApp updates when a deal moves stage, and logs chats under the Bigin contact.

New WhatsApp contacts can

be created automatically as leads or contacts in Zoho CRM.

Deal stages in Zoho

CRM can update when a customer answers chatbot questions or taps a WhatsApp button.

WhatsApp chat logs and

notes are saved to the Zoho CRM contact timeline.

You can filter Zoho

CRM contacts by tag, deal stage or lead owner and send a WhatsApp broadcast to them.

Does Ownchat integrate with HubSpot or other CRMs?

Plans include API access (basic on Starter, advanced webhooks on Professional, custom webhooks and advanced API on Business), so teams on another CRM can ask the Ownchat sales team whether a webhook or API connection fits their setup before they buy.

Implementation Takeaways

How much does a WhatsApp CRM cost with Ownchat?

Subscription plans for customers outside India are billed in US dollars. Plans differ in users, contacts, chatbot flows, workflows and chat history. Ask the Ownchat team which CRM features are included on each plan. WhatsApp messages are charged separately, per delivered message, at Ownchat's published per-message prices, which are billed in USD and updated when Meta changes its rates.

Implementation Takeaways

Under Meta's rules, each business phone number gets 1,000 free service messages per month (since 1 October 2026), and messages customers send to you are free.

Topic 09 · Expert Guide

Is a WhatsApp business CRM compliant with PDPA and UAE rules?

The tool helps, but compliance depends on how you collect consent and what you send. In Singapore, the PDPC's Do Not Call rules cover messaging apps such as WhatsApp when the recipient uses a Singapore number, so marketing messages need a DNC Registry check or clear consent. In the UAE, the Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree-Law 45 of 2021) governs how you store and use customer data.

Implementation Takeaways

Ownchat supports this with opt-out management on broadcasts, tags to record consent, and data export for records. This is general information, not legal advice.

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a WhatsApp CRM and the WhatsApp Business app?

The WhatsApp Business app runs on one phone and stores chats on that device. A WhatsApp CRM such as Ownchat runs on the official WhatsApp Business API, so several agents share one number and every chat is saved to a customer profile with tags, history and deal stage.

Can I keep using my WhatsApp Business app number?

Yes. Ownchat supports WhatsApp Coexistence, which lets you use the WhatsApp Business app and the Cloud API on the same number without deleting or re-registering it. WhatsApp Call and Group features are not supported in Ownchat while Coexistence mode is active.

Does Ownchat have a Zoho CRM WhatsApp integration?

Yes. You connect Zoho CRM with one-click OAuth. New WhatsApp contacts can become Zoho CRM leads, deal stages can update from chat actions, and chat logs are saved to the contact timeline. A separate integration is available for Zoho Bigin.

Does Ownchat integrate with HubSpot?

Ownchat does not list a native HubSpot integration. Its listed CRM integrations are Zoho CRM and Zoho Bigin. Plans include API and webhook access, so contact sales@ownchat.app to check whether a connection fits your HubSpot setup.

How much does a WhatsApp CRM cost in Singapore or the UAE?

Ownchat plans start at $12 per month billed annually, or $18 billed monthly, in USD. WhatsApp messages are charged per delivered message at Ownchat's published prices, for example $0.0878 for a marketing message to Singapore and $0.0691 to the UAE.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Ownchat offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. You can test the CRM, inbox, chatbot and broadcasts before choosing a plan.
