## From WhatsApp to Genesys Web Chat in three steps

Keep the first contact on WhatsApp and move the conversation to Genesys Web Chat to reduce paid messaging without losing continuity of service.

1. **1**### **The customer starts on WhatsApp**

   The customer writes to your WhatsApp channel and receives a clear, timely and personalized first reply.
2. **2**### **They receive a continuity link**

   WhatsApp shares a secure link that takes the customer to your website to continue their request.
3. **3**### **Web Chat opens automatically**

   When they enter the site, Genesys opens the Web Chat and keeps the context needed for service to continue without friction.
