Using 2Chat won't cause a ban as it's just a WhatsApp Web session from WhatsApp's eyes, but it's important to follow certain guidelines to avoid getting banned. Here are some tips to help you stay within WhatsApp's guidelines:
1. Pace Your Messages
Sending messages too quickly can trigger WhatsApp's anti-spam mechanisms. If you are going to use Campaigns or the API to send messages to several numbers, start by sending no more than 12 messages per hour, which translates to one message every 5 minutes. This will help you stay under the radar and avoid being flagged for SPAM.
2. Warm Up Your Number
If you're using a new number, it's crucial to "warm it up" before sending messages in bulk. You can engage in back-and-forth conversations with your contacts to establish a natural flow of communication. This helps WhatsApp recognize your number as legitimate and reduces the risk of being banned. Additionally, running campaigns simultaneously and using the same number can raise suspicions of spam and lead to a ban.
3. Avoid Spam Reports
If people mark your messages as spam, there's little you can do to prevent a ban. WhatsApp has strict policies against spam, and multiple reports can lead to your number being banned regardless of other precautions. To minimize the chances of being reported, ensure your messages are relevant and valuable to your recipients, and ask your customers to add your WhatsApp business phone number as a contact.
By following these guidelines, you can use 2Chat to mitigate the risks of bans effectively.
