Several methods to filter phone numbers for WhatsApp registration

In today's trend where digital foreign trade marketing takes the lead in overall foreign trade marketing, WhatsApp has gradually become the main tool for global foreign trade marketers and customers to communicate. However, WhatsApp relies on phone numbers for adding friends and marketing operations, so it is best to confirm whether a phone number is registered with WhatsApp before marketing to avoid doing useless work.

It sounds easy, but it is actually quite difficult to execute. Today, we will introduce several methods to determine if a phone number is registered on WhatsApp.

First is WhatsApp Link detection:

We need to manually edit the link, "https://wa.me/insert phone number here" or "https://api.whatsapp.com/send/?phone=insert phone number here", then send it to any contact or copy it into the browser to jump to the WhatsApp chat window. After sending the message, we only need to observe the feedback of the message sent to determine whether the number is registered on WhatsApp.

Then there is the manual inquiry method:

We can ask the other party if they have registered on WhatsApp by sending a message or other means, and request them to send their WhatsApp bound phone number/friend link/QR code for adding friends and other content.

Using third-party WhatsApp auxiliary tools:

Like the Crownsoft WhatsApp Filter, with this tool, we only need to import the phone number list and log into our WhatsApp account (the more accounts logged in, the higher the efficiency), and we can quickly determine which numbers are registered on WhatsApp and which are not. Compared to the two methods above, using third-party auxiliary tools can not only quickly complete the related operations but also obtain more information about users. For example, obtaining users' avatars and signatures, and automatically estimating users' age, gender, language, etc., further increasing our marketing success rate.

These are the methods to filter phone numbers registered on WhatsApp. I hope this article can help you!

Crownsoft WhatsApp Filter allows users to scan QR codes to log into their WhatsApp accounts or import channel accounts or hash accounts in batches for filtering. It utilizes WhatsApp permissions to filter phone numbers registered with WhatsApp and provides insights such as gender and age based on WhatsApp avatars. Post-filtering, you can export .txt/.xls/.xlsx/.vcf files.
