Comment on Show HN: Kapso – WhatsApp for developers

Comments

This is really really cool, and thank you for the free tier as well.

Always been a bit put off using WhatsApp as I've seen the pain some devs have had to go through to integrate it, this looks smooth.

Excited to have a play around with this.

thanks! and yeah, the integration pain is exactly why I built this.

let me know what you think once you try it!

Documentation and sandbox is good, however is the facebook account a hard requirement to getting a number and templates setup? I've paid the $6 for a number however I don't have (or want) a facebook account, so seems I'm a bit stuck.

yeah unfortunately you need a Facebook account

Ahh gutted. I should have realised this from the wording for sandbox mode:

Get a Kapso sandbox number to test your integrations. Start building without a phone number or Meta account.

It might be good just to state that you need a Meta account for a number.
