Digital Rise WhatsApp Solutions

What Is Digital Rise WhatsApp Solutions?

Digital Rise WhatsApp Solutions is a FREE WordPress plugin that replaces your WooCommerce checkout process with WhatsApp contact buttons. Instead of traditional “Add to Cart” and “Checkout” flows, customers click a green WhatsApp button that opens a pre-filled message with the product they’re interested in.

Perfect for businesses that need to:

• Discuss product details before finalizing sales
• Provide personalized quotes and pricing
• Build customer relationships through direct communication
• Qualify leads before processing orders
• Offer customization options via conversation
