Complete Guide to WhatsApp Mini App

Overview

WhatsApp Mini App is a separate app in the MooseDesk ecosystem that allows merchants to place a WhatsApp icon on their store, enabling customers to open WhatsApp directly with a single click.

How to set up

WhatsApp Mini App Onboarding involves three main steps:

  • Activating
  • Styling
  • Tracking

Activating WhatsApp Button

Enable the Button

Step 1: Navigate to Onboarding tab > Click “Activate”

Step 2: In the Theme store, turn on the toggle “WhatsApp Mini App”

Step 3: Click “Save” to apply changes

Then, the green badge “Enabled” appears.

Set up phone number

Step 1: Come back to WhatsApp Mini App, go to Settings tab > General

Step 2: Enter your business phone number in international format

Step 3: Select your preferred WhatsApp platform (Web/Desktop)

Styling Your WhatsApp Button

Go to Settings > Styling and customize the appearance of your WhatsApp button with these options:

  1. Icon
  2. Font style
  3. Button type
  4. Button size adjustment
  5. Button position
  6. Advanced styling settings

Advanced Settings

Navigate Settings > Advanced and fine-tune your WhatsApp with:

  1. Custom CSS styling: Modifying appearance beyond given options for brand customization

Here’s an example of CSS code that creates a pulsing animation effect for your Whatsapp button:

.custom-wa-float-btn_button-wrap {
animation: pulse-bounce 2s infinite ease-in-out;
}

@keyframes pulse-bounce {
0% {
transform: scale(1);
}

50% {
transform: scale(1.1);
}

100% {
transform: scale(1);
}
}
  1. Tracking implementation: Monitoring customer button clicks using Google Analytics and Meta Pixel. For detailed guidance, please refer to our dedicated tracking manual.
