SMS Masking vs WhatsApp: Which Is Right for Business Notifications?

SMS Masking and WhatsApp have different strengths, so the right choice depends on the message type and customer experience.

SMS offers broad reach to mobile numbers and does not require a particular messaging application. WhatsApp offers a richer and more interactive experience for conversations and detailed business communication.

When should you use SMS?

SMS is a strong primary or fallback channel for OTP and short, time-sensitive notifications because it reaches customers without requiring an app account.

When should you use WhatsApp?

WhatsApp is often a better fit for communication that needs replies, richer details or customer service interaction. A multi-channel strategy can select the primary channel and keep an alternative for important messages.
