AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Social Chat – Click To Chat App Button is a category-leading WordPress app with a growing review traction. It is listed in the Whatsapp category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 683 reviews show steady adoption but the app hasn't crossed the heavy-volume bar yet. Review accumulation at this stage tends to come from segment-specific use cases rather than universal adoption, so fit-to-stack matters more than category-leader brand recognition. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

WhatsApp Chat for WordPress allows your customers to click a button and open a conversation from your website directly to your “WhatsApp” or “WhatsApp Business” phone number. This plugin includes a Whatsapp button where you can include a pre-set message, which will be automatically be the first message in the conversation.
Formerly WhatsApp Chat This plugin was formerly known as “WhatsApp Chat”. WordPress forced us on August 8, 2019 to change the name of the plugin due to use of the “WhatsApp” word in the name. We apologize for the problems that the downtime may have caused to you.
Why WhatsApp? WhatsApp is these days, the most popular instant messaging application in the world. Is available in more than 100 countries and supporting more than 50 languages.
This means most of our users use WhatsApp as their main contact method, and they probably have been using it for years. Therefore, offering easy access from our website is a good way to convert those visitors into customers.
Generating leads is the key to every business success, and the Social Chat button can help you to increase your overall sales and reach this goal.
WhatsApp Button With the Social Chat button, your visitors will be allowed to send a message directly to your phone number. To start configuring it, you have to go to the button tab inside the Social Chat section that you can find in your admin dashboard.
Inside the button tab, you wil be able to switch between two different layouts, and to define if you want to include rounded edges, also the position where you want to show the WhatsApp button, the text to be displayed inside, the WhatsApp phone number and the default user message.
Social Chat Box Social Chat also allows you to include a box to show some contact information and a personalized message. This box can be activated through the Box tab inside the Social Chat section, and there also you can define the header and footer message, contact name, phone, work, and an avatar.
