A customer service team with headsets helping customers

Every chat on the customer record.

WhatsApp, Viber and LINE inside HubSpot, for enterprises across Southeast Asia.

A WhatsApp CRM integration puts customer chats on the CRM record. In HubSpot, WhatsApp connects natively to the conversations inbox on Marketing Hub or Service Hub Professional or Enterprise. Viber and LINE connect through messaging partners. Azend sets up routing, templates and consent for each market.

Native where it exists. Partners elsewhere.

Native in HubSpot

WhatsApp

Connects to the conversations inbox on Marketing Hub or Service Hub Professional or Enterprise. Needs a verified Meta Business Manager and a number not used on the WhatsApp Business app.

Through messaging partners

Viber and LINE

Not native channels. They connect through HubSpot Marketplace apps or the custom channels API, set up with our messaging partners and tested per market.

The rules to design around.

WhatsApp limits, as HubSpot documents them. Planned before go-live, not after.

24h

A session stays open for 24 hours after the contact's last reply.

Templates outside it

After the window closes, only a pre-approved template message restarts the chat.

Monthly template limit

HubSpot notes 1,000 template messages a month across connected accounts. High volume needs a plan.

Questions.

Can we keep our current WhatsApp Business app number?

Not on the same number. HubSpot requires a number that is not connected to the WhatsApp Business app or another WhatsApp integration, so we plan the number move.

How is customer consent handled?

We record opt-in and opt-out per channel on the contact, built to Malaysia PDPA, Singapore PDPA and the Philippines Data Privacy Act. By country

What if we send more template messages than the limit allows?

We design for it early: which messages go through the native inbox, and which through the WhatsApp Business Platform with a messaging partner such as Infobip. WhatsApp Business Platform
