> WhatsApp monetization comes through the business offerings. Increasingly, you can use that to interact with companies, small and large

Yeah I know that's their plan (basically trying to copy WeChat) but does anyone actually use it? I haven't heard of a single business in the UK using it yet.

I’ve interacted with a few businesses in the UK already, and way more in Asia/Middle East. Forgot to add there’s also WhatsApp Pay which, while limited to only India and Brazil, is still a sizable population. It’s monetized through the fixed fee charged to the business that you pay.
