The Grapevine speaks - WhatsApp Advertising to become available July 2019
Don’t ask us how, but we are reasonably sure WhatsApp Advertising (status tab) will become a reality in July 2019.
Advertising in the status tab (not te be confused with Facebooks’ offering of WhatsApp logo/button/connection in Facebook Ads) will be possible through either Facebook Ads Manager, a dedicated platform for WhatsApp or a new/revised platform that offers both (Facebook and WhatsApp advertising).
If our prediction turns out to be faulty, we will post a video - here - of an awkward team dance.
