Is this the same as Wati or other WhatsApp API tools?

Different job. Wati and similar tools sell API messaging: bulk sends, chatbots, and support inboxes, priced per conversation. Scaanme sells the storefront itself: catalog, cart, and orders into your chat, no API involved. Many businesses need only the storefront.

WhatsApp Business Catalog Alternative

Keep WhatsApp as your order inbox. Upgrade everything around it: a real storefront, categories, cart, and a link that markets itself.

The built-in WhatsApp Business catalog is fine for a dozen products, then it hurts: no categories, no cart, no branded page to share, and customers still type orders by hand. A Scaanme WhatsApp store is a real storefront on your own link: organized categories, product photos and prices in Arabic and English, a cart, and a send-order button that delivers the whole order as one structured WhatsApp message. You do not need the WhatsApp Business API, there is no payment gateway requirement, and Scaanme takes zero commission on your sales. Customers pay how they already pay you: cash on delivery, bank transfer, Vodafone Cash, InstaPay, or your payment link. Store plans start at 10$/month after a free trial of the card itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need the WhatsApp Business API?

No. The store sends orders to your normal WhatsApp number. No API application, no per-message fees, no BSP contract.

Can customers pay inside the store?

Scaanme does not process payments and takes no commission. You collect payment the way you already do: cash on delivery, transfer, wallet apps like Vodafone Cash or InstaPay, or your own payment link added as a button.

What does it cost compared to the free built-in catalog?

The built-in catalog is free and stays a flat list. Scaanme store plans start at 10$/month with a 14-day money-back guarantee, and the store keeps 0% commission, so one saved mis-order usually covers the month.
