Official WhatsApp Business API · Built for Indian Fitness Studios

Improve your brand with WhatsApp Business API

WhatsApp Marketing connects your gym's own WhatsApp Business number to MyGymDesk: a shared team inbox for replies, campaigns to members, leads and expiring or expired members, auto-replies, and your own message templates in English or Hindi, which Meta approves before use. Once a template is approved, that reminder goes from your number too.

The Daily Reality

Sound familiar?

Personal WA banned

You sent 50 birthday wishes. WhatsApp banned your number. Business stops.

Leads ghost you at 11 PM

A prospect messages after-hours. By morning, they joined the gym next door.

No templates, no flow

Every payment reminder is typed manually. Half the time it never goes out.

No visibility

Did the campaign even land? Was it read? You have no idea — and no analytics.

From chaos to a marketing machine

Same WhatsApp. Completely different outcomes.

Today

Everything you need

A WhatsApp marketing suite, not a feature

Eight powerful capabilities, built specifically for how Indian gyms actually run.

Official WhatsApp Business API

Your own WhatsApp Business number, direct from Meta’s Cloud API: no unofficial clients, no middleman.

One-Click Embedded Signup

Connect Facebook Business Manager and register your number in one embedded signup, then start sending once Meta approves your templates.

Approved Template Library

Pre-built fitness templates: payment reminders, expiry alerts, birthday wishes, class confirmations. Plus build your own with images, videos, buttons & variables.

Bulk Campaigns + Smart Segments

Send to members, leads, or everyone expiring or expired. Schedule, preview live, and launch without breaking a sweat.

Auto-Reply Rules 24×7

Keyword-based replies for "hi", "pricing", "demo" — never miss a lead at 11 PM. Match exact, contains or starts-with logic with priority chains.

Automated Triggers

Payment received → invoice sent. Class booked → confirmation. Birthday → wishes + offer. Plan expired → win-back. All wired into your gym data.

Shared Team Inbox

Replies land in MGD, not your personal phone. Multiple staff respond, conversation history per member, tag & assign as you go.

Analytics & Quality Score

Sent · Delivered · Read · Replied, per campaign.

Set it once, runs forever

Automated triggers wired into your gym data

Connect MGD member events to WhatsApp messages once — and never think about them again. Every payment, booking, expiry and birthday becomes a touchpoint.

Activate Automation
Payment received → instant invoice + thank-you
Payment due in 3 days → automatic reminder
Class booked → confirmation with trainer & time
New lead → welcome message with current offers
Plan expired → re-engagement with renewal nudge
Birthday → personalised wish + special offer

Real outcomes

What gyms actually do with this

RE-ENGAGEMENT

Win back expiring memberships

A renewal reminder goes out 7 days before a membership expires (the default), from your own number once its template is approved, and you can send a renewal campaign to everyone expiring or expired.

AFTER-HOURS

Convert leads at 11 PM, while you sleep

Lead messages "interested" at midnight? Auto-reply with pricing, plans and a Calendly link. Wake up to qualified, pre-warmed enquiries.

DELIGHT

Birthday wishes that bring referrals

Every member gets a personalised birthday note + a "bring-a-friend free trial" offer. One of the highest-converting campaigns we see.

COLLECTIONS

Stop chasing payments manually

Polite, branded payment reminders go out before a bill falls due (3 days before, by default), so members pay on time without anyone chasing them.

Frequently asked

Is this the official WhatsApp Business API?

Yes. We use Meta’s Cloud API directly, and your number gets a WhatsApp business profile.

Do I need a Facebook Business Manager?

Yes, but our Embedded Signup creates and connects it for you in the same flow.

How is this different from sending from my personal WhatsApp?

Your personal number can get banned for bulk messaging. WABA is built for it — bulk campaigns, templates, automation, analytics, multi-staff inbox — none of which work on personal WhatsApp.

Are there per-message charges from Meta?

Yes. Since 1 July 2025 Meta charges per template message, at a rate that depends on the category (marketing, utility, authentication), and bills you directly. Replies that are not templates are free, and so are utility templates sent while a member’s conversation window is open. Meta publishes the current rates for India on its WhatsApp pricing page.

Can I keep my existing business number?

Yes — as long as it isn't already registered as a personal WhatsApp account. If it is, you simply de-register from the WhatsApp app first, then onboard it here.

Which templates come pre-approved?

Payment reminders, payment confirmations, plan expiry alerts, class booking confirmations, birthday wishes, and welcome messages — all crafted for fitness businesses and ready to send.

Do my staff get inbox access?

Yes. Multiple staff can respond from the shared MGD inbox, with full conversation history per member and role-based permissions.

Can I cancel anytime?

Of course. Monthly plan cancels anytime, no lock-in. Annual and 3-year plans are pre-paid for the period chosen.

Start your own WhatsApp Business number.

Stop messaging members from your personal WhatsApp. Get a verified business number and turn WhatsApp into your highest-ROI marketing channel.
