How messenger links work

Each messenger has its own format. If the number is written wrong, the link opens a blank screen or “number not found”, and the customer leaves.

WhatsApp

wa.me/15125550147: the number in digits only, with the country code and no plus sign. The message text goes in the ?text= parameter.

Telegram

t.me/username: by username, always works. t.me/+15125550147: by phone number, if you allowed people to find you by number.

Country code

US and Canada 1, UK 44, Australia 61, India 91. Without the code, WhatsApp can’t tell which country the number belongs to.

Every messenger in one button

Some customers message on WhatsApp, others on Telegram or Instagram, and some want to call. The LeadForms multi-button puts every way to reach you into one button in the corner of the screen. It’s free and installs with a single snippet.

Customers choose

WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, phone and email in a drop-down menu. No extra buttons cluttering the page.

Your quiz in the same menu

A multi-button item can open your quiz on top of the page, so people who aren’t ready to message can still leave a request with their answers.

Only where you need it

Show the button only on phones or only on certain pages, and place it in a corner where it doesn’t cover anything on your site.

Frequently asked questions

The link looks like this: https://wa.me/15125550147, with the number in international format, digits only, no plus sign, spaces or parentheses. To open the chat with a pre-filled message, add ?text= and the text. The generator does this for you and cleans up the number even if you type it with spaces or dashes.
If the account has a username, the link is https://t.me/username. You can also link by phone number, https://t.me/+15125550147, but it only opens the chat if the owner allowed people to find them by number in their privacy settings.
Most likely the number isn’t in international format: it has to start with the country code, for example 1 for the US and Canada or 44 for the UK. It also happens when that number simply isn’t on WhatsApp. Click “Test” in the generator and the link opens in a new tab.
If the number has 10 digits and doesn’t start with +, the generator adds +1 (US and Canada) and lets you know. If your number is in another country, type it with its country code.
Copy the button code from the generator and paste it into an HTML block on the page. If you use several messengers, the LeadForms multi-button is more convenient: WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, phone and email in one button in the corner of the screen, for free.
No. The link is built right in your browser; nothing is sent to our server.
