Description
Snappy Chat Button makes it effortless for visitors to reach you on WhatsApp. One click and they’re in a conversation with you — no forms, no email chains, no friction.
Install the plugin, enter your WhatsApp number, and a clean floating button appears on every page of your site. When a visitor clicks it, WhatsApp opens instantly — on mobile it launches the app, on desktop it opens WhatsApp Web — with a pre-filled message ready to go.

FAQ
-
What number format should I use?
-
Select your country from the dropdown and enter your local number. The plugin handles all formatting automatically — no need to include the country code or leading zero.
-
Does this work on mobile?
-
Yes. On mobile and tablet it opens the WhatsApp app directly. On desktop it opens WhatsApp Web.
-
Will it slow down my site?
-
No. The plugin loads a single small CSS file on the front end. No scripts, no external API calls, no database queries on page load.
-
Does it work with my theme?
-
Yes. The button is injected into the page footer and floats above your content using a high z-index.
-
