Registration process
For your company to communicate with your customers via WhatsApp via mluvii, you first need to set up a WhatsApp Business Account (WABA). A WABA account is tied to a specific phone number and when you set it up, you can customize its name, logo, or other details that will be displayed to customers on your WhatsApp profile. To apply for a WABA account, you will need to add a few other details.
To activate your account you need:
a verified Meta Business Manager account
a Meta Business Manager administrator account, and
1. Login to Meta Business Manager
In the settings section, open the WhatsApp subsection
Here, click on the "New" button in the top right corner,

If possible, we recommend choosing SMS verification.
If the machine calls a phone number with an IVR tree, we recommend that you temporarily set the PBX level to forward the incoming call to your phone.
The "machine" will call from the phone number +441134679230 and immediately start dictating the 6-digit code over and over again.
Confirm your selection with the "Send verification code" button.
