Questions buyers ask before switching

No. Your number stays with you. You disconnect it from Wati and connect it to Wutt using the same Meta Cloud API account or a QR session. Meta approvals for templates are tied to your business, not to Wati.

You can reuse the same template text, but you re-submit the templates inside Wutt so approvals are associated with your Wutt workspace. Most approvals take a few hours to a few days.

The mechanical part takes one to two hours: export contacts, connect the number, import templates. Most teams run both tools for a week before fully switching links and QR codes.

No. Meta bills you for message fees and Wutt bills you a flat plan price. Wati charges per-conversation fees that include their markup.

Wati has deep Shopify automation. Wutt connects WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce, PrestaShop, OpenCart and Squarespace Commerce, but if you live inside one Shopify ecosystem with Wati automations, test both before switching.

Wutt runs a $1 first-month trial. Wati offers a 14-day free trial. Compare them side by side on the same number.
