Conformité Meta

## The WhatsApp Opt-in Protocol

How Natalia complies with Meta's rules to protect your business number

1.  1

    ### The Bounce Message

    The message sent after the missed call is a service message (Service Conversation), not marketing.

    "Hello, you tried to reach \[Company Name\]. To help you without waiting, would you like to continue here on WhatsApp? (Yes/No)"

    Service message authorized by Meta

2.  2

    ### Active Opt-in

    Natalia only engages in deeper conversation if the user interacts (clicks a button or gives a positive response). This is implicit opt-in through interaction.

    Consent through positive action

3.  3

    ### "STOP" Management

    Every message from Natalia includes the option to reply STOP to unsubscribe. If the customer writes "STOP", Natalia immediately closes the channel and marks the contact as "Opt-out" in the CRM.

    Instant and synchronized unsubscription

#### Why is this important?

This protocol ensures your WhatsApp Business number will never be blocked by Meta. We strictly follow the rules to protect your reputation and your ability to communicate with customers.

## Frequently asked questions

Is it legal to send an automatic WhatsApp after a missed call?

Yes. The legal basis is legitimate interest and pre-contractual relationship: the customer called, so they expressed an intention to contact you. We're simply responding to their request through another channel. No prior opt-in is required for this type of service communication.

How does Natalia connect to my phone system?

Several options depending on your setup: webhook/API if your PBX supports it, direct SIP trunk integration, simple call forwarding to our number, or native integration with our partner operators. Our team will help you choose the best solution for your needs.

How long to get up and running?

Less than 24 hours in most cases. Our team supports you from A to Z: phone system connection setup, message customization, real-world testing. You're never alone.

Is €99/month worth it? How many missed calls do I need?

It depends on your industry. In automotive, a lead is worth an average of $500 in margin, profitable from just 1 recovered lead per month. In real estate, a listing represents $3,000+, profitable from 1 listing per quarter. Compared to a part-time receptionist ($2,000/month), Natalia costs 30x less and works 24/7.

Does Natalia WhatsApp work alone or with Natalia Voice?

Both. Natalia WhatsApp can work standalone to follow up on your missed calls. But it's even more powerful when paired with Natalia Voice: Voice answers and qualifies, WhatsApp follows up on those that didn't connect. They complement each other perfectly. For contacts without WhatsApp, Natalia also offers a dedicated SMS module for short notifications and confirmations.

Which CRMs and business tools are compatible?

Standard: HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Google Calendar. For automotive: I'Car Systems, Planning Atelier. For real estate: Apimo, Hektor. And our API allows connecting any other tool on request.

What languages does the AI support?

All languages. Our AI automatically detects the customer's language and responds in the same language. French, English, Spanish, German, Arabic, Chinese... no additional configuration needed.

Can we customize the messages and questions asked?

Absolutely. Each conversation script is tailored to your business and vocabulary. The Natalia team configures with you the questions to ask, information to collect, and message tone. You validate before going live.

How does it work for multiple locations?

The Enterprise plan includes multi-site management: a consolidated dashboard to see stats from all your locations, centralized configuration from headquarters, and a single group invoice. Each site can have its own customized scripts.

Is there a minimum commitment?

No. Monthly plans carry no commitment and can be cancelled at any time. The annual commitment lowers the price by 12% and rolls unused credit over to the next month, up to 25% of the plan.
