How to create ads in the WhatsApp Business app
From within the WhatsApp Business app, you can create Facebook and Instagram ads that lead to a WhatsApp chat with you. These ads can be tailored to your business. You can select photos for your ad, set a budget and duration, and choose a target audience.
If you have a Facebook account or Facebook page that is linked to your WhatsApp Business account, you can create ads that appear on both Facebook and Instagram.
If you don’t have a Facebook account or Facebook page, you can still create ads using your email address. These ads will only appear on Facebook.
