Connect WhatsApp to Your Bakery

By the BakeOnyx Editorial TeamLast reviewed

AI-assisted draft, reviewed and edited by the BakeOnyx team.

You can finally stop manually copying and pasting customer messages and order details from WhatsApp into your bakery software. For too long, you've spent precious Sunday hours re-typing phone numbers, export-importing chat logs, or worse, missing a critical detail that leads to a wrong order. Imagine Monday morning where all your bakery communication lives in one place. New inquiries from WhatsApp automatically create customer profiles in BakeOnyx. Confirmed orders are ready for production without you touching a keyboard. When a customer replies to an order confirmation sent via WhatsApp, that message appears right next to their order in BakeOnyx. This integration means less admin, fewer mistakes, and more time actually baking.

What Syncs

Customer Messages

Your customer conversations from WhatsApp appear directly within their customer profile in BakeOnyx. No more searching through chat histories to recall details.

New Inquiries

When a new customer messages you on WhatsApp with an inquiry, BakeOnyx can automatically create a new customer profile for them. You’ll know who they are before you even reply.

Order Confirmations

Send order confirmations directly to your customers via WhatsApp from BakeOnyx. This ensures they receive timely updates and reduces your administrative work.

Payment Links

When you create an invoice in BakeOnyx, you can send a payment link directly to your customer via WhatsApp. They click, they pay, and the payment automatically updates in BakeOnyx.

Order Status Updates

Update your customers on their order status (e.g., 'In Production', 'Ready for Pickup') with a quick message sent via WhatsApp, all triggered from BakeOnyx.

How It Works

1

Customer Initiates Contact

A customer messages your business WhatsApp number. BakeOnyx checks if this number is already linked to a customer profile. If not, it flags it as a new inquiry.

2

Message Appears in BakeOnyx

The conversation thread from WhatsApp is automatically attached to the customer's profile in BakeOnyx. You can see their messages without leaving your bakery dashboard.

3

Create and Send Order Details

When you create a quote or order in BakeOnyx, you can directly send a confirmation message, including a payment link, to the customer's WhatsApp number with one click.

4

Payment Confirmation Syncs

Once a customer pays via the WhatsApp payment link, the payment is automatically recorded in BakeOnyx, updating the order status to 'Paid'.

5

Production and Delivery Updates

As you move an order through production stages in BakeOnyx, you can trigger status update messages to be sent to your customer's WhatsApp.
