How to verify your WhatsApp number
Some features need a verified WhatsApp number. Example: earthquake alerts.
How do I verify the number?
- Sign in as a customer.
- Open WhatsApp number settings.
- Enter the number.
- Request an OTP code.
- Enter the 6-digit code within 10 minutes.
- Finish verification.
The system sends the OTP on WhatsApp. There is a send limit: 1 send per number per 10 minutes, and 3 sends per account per 10 minutes. The number must be unique. A temporary number is stored until verification is finished.
If the number is not verified yet, a link to the verification page appears on features that need it.
