The company said that as always, people will remain in control of their chats.

"People still need to reach out to start a conversation or request a business to contact them via WhatsApp.With these updates, we're also providing new ways for people to give greater feedback about the experience they are having if they have a reason to block a business,' WhatsApp said.

The company in April said that people can browse more than 8 million business catalogues on WhatsApp, including 1 million in India to find something they might like to buy.

Over 50 million businesses and more than 175 million people message a WhatsApp Business account every day.

"We are excited that with the new easy on-boarding, more businesses will be able to benefit and find an efficient way to interact with their customers," said Ravi Sundararajan, COO of conversational messaging platform Gupshup. (IANS/AD)
