Getting started with the Paisha WhatsApp API
Jun 14, 2026
The Paisha WhatsApp API lets you send and receive WhatsApp messages over a single REST endpoint. Here is how to get started.
1. Create an account
Sign up, choose a plan, and upload your payment. Once approved, your account is active.
2. Connect your number
Open your dashboard and scan the QR code with WhatsApp → Linked devices.
3. Send your first message
Use your API key to call POST /whatsapp/messages/send-text with a chatId and text.
That is it — you are now sending WhatsApp messages programmatically across Africa.
