What it does

What the button does

One-tap WhatsApp button

Shoppers tap the floating button and WhatsApp opens with your number and the message you wrote. Pick its color and the bottom-left or bottom-right corner on any plan.

Chat popup with your greeting

On Starter the button opens a small chat popup first, with your own greeting and button text, so shoppers know who they are talking to.

Up to 5 agents

List up to five people, such as Sales and Support, each with a name, role, WhatsApp number and starting message.

Business hours

Set your hours for each day. Outside them the popup shows an offline note, or you can hide the button until you are back.

Product name and link in the message

On product pages the message can include the product name and link, so you know what the shopper is asking about.

Choose pages and devices

Show the button on every page or only the pages you pick, on phones, desktop or both.

Setup

How it works

  1. Install the app

    Add WA Float WhatsApp Button to your store from the Shopify App Store. The free plan needs no card.

  2. Enter your number and message

    Type your WhatsApp number in international format and the message shoppers start with, then pick a color and corner.

  3. Turn on the app embed

    One click opens your theme editor with the button switched on. Save, and it shows on your storefront. There is no theme code to edit.

  4. Add the popup (Starter)

    On Starter, write your greeting, add your agents and business hours, and choose the pages and devices.

Shopper chats stay in WhatsApp. The button opens a wa.me link on the shopper's own device. The app does not read, store or send the conversation.
Why WhatsApp

Why add a WhatsApp button to your store?

WhatsApp is the app many of your shoppers already open every day.

Easier than a contact form

A shopper with a quick question can ask it in a chat instead of filling in a form and waiting for an email.

Made for phones

Most store visits happen on phones, and WhatsApp is already installed there. One tap opens the app they know.

A personal conversation

A WhatsApp chat feels like talking to a person, not opening a support ticket, which can help shoppers trust your store.

Answers before they leave

A question answered while the shopper is still on the product page is a question that does not end the visit.

FAQ

Questions, answered honestly

Is the WA Float WhatsApp Button for Shopify free?
Yes. The free plan gives you a working WhatsApp button with your number, message, color and left or right corner, with no expiry and no credit card. Starter ($2.99/month or $19.99/year, 7-day free trial) adds the chat popup, up to 5 agents, business hours, page and device targeting and product links in the message.
How do I add a WhatsApp button to my Shopify store?
Install the app from the Shopify App Store, enter your WhatsApp number and message in the app, then turn on the app embed in your theme editor and save. There is no coding.
Which Shopify themes does it work with?
It works through Shopify's app embed, so it works with Online Store 2.0 themes and keeps working when you update your theme.
What phone number format should I use?
Use the full international format with the country code and digits only, for example 14155552671 for the US, 447911123456 for the UK or 923001234567 for Pakistan.
Can I show different agents, like Sales and Support?
Yes, on Starter. Add up to five agents, each with a name, role, WhatsApp number and starting message. Shoppers pick who to message in the chat popup.
What happens outside my business hours?
On Starter you set your hours for each day. Outside them the popup shows your offline note, or you can hide the button until you are open again.
Does the app collect customer data?
No. The button opens WhatsApp on the shopper's device through a wa.me link. The app does not collect or store customer data, but you are still responsible for your own store's privacy obligations.
Why is my WhatsApp button not showing?
The most common cause is that the app embed is off. Go to Online Store, Themes, Customize, App embeds, switch the button on and save. Also check that your WhatsApp number is saved in the app, and on Starter that the current page and device are selected.
