## Before You Start

- Connect your WhatsApp Business account first. See [Connect & Configure WhatsApp](/docs/connect-and-configure-whatsapp).
- You need access to **Integrations** in Settings, and permission to manage marketing settings. Shop owners have both.
- Have your logo ready as an image file. A square logo looks best, because WhatsApp shows it in a circle.
- If you set this up before: these are the same details as Step 2 of the old Connect & Configure WhatsApp guide. Nothing needs to be redone, and what you saved then is still showing.

## Overview

Your WhatsApp business profile is the page customers see when they tap your name at the top of a chat. It shows your profile picture, a one-line About, your address, a short description, your email and your website. EasyBiz lets you fill all of it in from the Console, without opening Meta's tools. A complete profile tells customers they are talking to a real shop, not a stranger. It also answers simple questions like "where are you?" before they need to ask.

**Where it works**

- **WhatsApp on your customers' phones:** the profile shows when a customer taps your name in a chat with your number.
- **Console:** you edit the profile on the **Integrations** page. Your staff see no change in the Inbox.

## Why set it up

Customers get messages from many numbers. A logo and a clear About line help them recognise you and trust the payment links and pickup reminders you send. Your address, email and website answer the questions staff otherwise type out again and again.

If you skip it, your chat shows a blank grey picture and an empty profile. Customers see your phone number and the name Meta approved for it, and nothing else.

## FAQs

**Why does WhatsApp show my phone number instead of my business name?**

> The name at the top of the chat is your number's display name, not part of this profile. Meta reviews every display name, and until it approves yours, customers may see only your phone number. If your account shows Not verified on the Integrations page, completing business verification with Meta also helps your name show. See [Connect & Configure WhatsApp](/docs/connect-and-configure-whatsapp).

**I emptied a box and clicked Update, but the old text is still there. Why?**

> An empty box is not sent to WhatsApp, so whatever WhatsApp already shows stays. To change a line, type the new text over it instead of leaving it empty.

**The Update button is grey. What's wrong?**

> Nothing. It stays grey until you change something in the window. Edit a box or choose a new picture and it turns on.

**I have two WhatsApp numbers. Do both get this profile?**

> No. It goes on your default number only, the first number on the WhatsApp Business row. Each extra number has its own profile, which you edit in Meta's WhatsApp Manager. See [Connect Multiple WhatsApp Numbers](/docs/connect-multiple-whatsapp-numbers).

**Does this change my receipts, Online Store or brand details?**

> No. This profile only changes what customers see in WhatsApp. Your shop name and logo on receipts and the Online Store come from your brand settings, so update both when you change your logo.

**My staff got an error when they clicked Update. Why?**

> Saving the profile needs permission to manage marketing settings. Ask the owner to save it, or to give that staff member the permission.
