Why Yapp

Everything moves to one place you control

🏬

One number, every branch

Customers pick a branch from a simple WhatsApp menu, and the chat routes straight to that team's inbox.

👁️

Management oversight

Supervisors and the owner see every conversation across all branches. Agents only see their own.

📵

Off personal WhatsApp

Conversations and customers live with the business — not on a staff member's phone when they leave.

🔀

Transfer & reassign

Wrong branch? Move a chat to the right team in one click, with a note kept on the record.

🖥️

Lives on your POS

Install Yapp as an app right on your counter PC — it's a PWA, so there's nothing to download from a store.

💸

Customer-initiated = free

Yapp is built around service chats. When customers message you first, WhatsApp messaging costs you nothing.*

How it works

Live in minutes, not weeks

  1. 1

    Customer messages your number

    One business WhatsApp number, shared by your whole team.

  2. 2

    They pick a branch

    A quick menu — "press 1 for Sandton, 2 for Durban" — routes them to the right team.

  3. 3

    Your team replies from one dashboard

    Each branch handles its chats; management keeps an eye on everything.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Do I need a separate WhatsApp number?

You'll use one dedicated WhatsApp Business number for Yapp. It can't be logged into the normal WhatsApp app at the same time, so it should be a number that isn't someone's personal WhatsApp.

How is this different from WhatsApp on a phone?

Instead of one person on one phone, your whole team shares one number from a dashboard — with routing to the right branch and management oversight. Nothing walks out the door when a staff member leaves.

Does it work for multiple branches?

Yes — that's the whole point. Customers pick a branch from a menu, each branch only sees its own chats, and head office sees everything.

What does it cost?

There's a free plan (2 team members, 1 branch) with no card required. Pro is R399/month for unlimited branches and up to 15 agents, with a 30-day free trial and no per-user fees.

Can agents see each other's chats?

No. A branch only sees conversations routed to it. Supervisors and the owner can see across all branches.

Is it POPIA-friendly?

Conversations are stored centrally under the business with role-based access, so staff only see what they should and the company keeps a complete record.
