WhatsApp link generator with a prefilled message
Build a valid wa.me link in seconds, with no sign-up and no install. Enter a number and a message, and get a link ready to send.
Start with + and the country code, for example +1 212 555 0123 or +44 7700 900123. Spaces and dashes are fine. The link itself carries no + sign.
The message appears already typed in the recipient's composer - they can still edit it before sending.

How to build a wa.me link by hand
A WhatsApp link has three parts: the fixed address https://wa.me/, then the phone number in international format with no + sign and no leading zero (the US number +1 212 555 0123 becomes 12125550123), and optionally ?text= followed by a URL-encoded message. Send the full link to anyone - clicking it opens a WhatsApp chat with the message already typed in.
A WhatsApp link for business
The same direct WhatsApp link works with a WhatsApp Business number too - useful for a shop, a small business, or a landing page when you want a click to open a direct chat instead of a contact form. Put a shortened WhatsApp link in an Instagram bio, an email signature, or a shop sign. WhatsApp Business has a short link of its own, but it is tied to one account, counts no clicks, and resetting it breaks every copy already printed. A ktzr.io short link works with any number, counts clicks, and its destination can change after printing.
Shorten your WhatsApp link and get a QR code
A wa.me link with a prefilled message is often long and awkward to copy. Paste it into the ktzr.io app and get a short link plus a designed QR code you can print on a sign, a business card, or an invitation - and see how many people clicked.
