If your app, website or online shop needs to verify a customer phone number, WhatsApp is the cheapest and fastest route inside Iraq. Link your own WhatsApp number once, then send codes with a single API call, and the customer sees the message arriving from your number, not from a stranger.
Just 13 IQD per message, and 10 free messages when you sign up.

The short version: use WhatsApp first and keep SMS as the fallback for customers with no internet. Full rates on the pricing page, and bulk SMS is there if you need it.
On the "Sender number" page click "Link my number" and scan the QR from WhatsApp → Linked devices. One time only.
Create a key from your dashboard in one click, and revoke or rotate it whenever you want.
One HTTP request with the number and the code. We build the message, send it, and hand you the result.
Your own WhatsApp number. You link it once by scanning a QR code, and every verification code then reaches your customer from your number, they see your name, not some unfamiliar company.
Sign in, open the "Sender number" page, click "Link my number" and a QR code appears. In WhatsApp on your phone go to Linked devices → Link a device and scan it. It is ready in seconds.
No. The link lives on our servers, not your phone, so messages keep going out even with your phone off or offline.
13 IQD per message, roughly 80% cheaper than SMS. See the pricing page for the full list.
WhatsApp is far cheaper, arrives faster, allows longer formatted text, and the customer sees it is from you. SMS reaches people with no internet, which is its one real advantage.
Yes. WhatsApp reaches any number with WhatsApp in any country, unlike our SMS which is Iraq-only.
Yes, and we will not pretend otherwise. Meta can ban any number sending automated messages, and this service is not official WhatsApp. Read the terms before you start, and do not use your personal number.
One HTTP request to the send endpoint with your API key. No library to install, any language that speaks HTTP works. PHP, Python and cURL examples are in the docs.
