Is it possible this way that a customer who registers the domain or a service gets an auto message in their Whatsapp and renewal notice also in the whatsapp.
Merged Ideas
    Whatsapp feature adding
    Can we have a feature where a user can place a request from whatsapp and the update can come to his whatsapp, and the user renewal informations and registration information can be shared on his / her whatsapp number.

Thanks for your requests and comments here.
Our team has been researching what we can do with WhatsApp and have come back with the following potential points of concern:
1. WhatsApp say they restrict the number of businesses that have access to the WhatsApp API (Reference: https://faq.whatsapp.com/en/26000171/?category=5245235), and that access to the API is restricted to Medium and Large businesses only. What have your experiences been in relation to this?
2. Twilio may be an easier path for getting access, albeit Paid access with per message sending costs, however, Twilio states that use must adhere to the WhatsApp Commerce Policy. The WhatsApp Commerce Policy states that WhatsApp Messaging cannot be used by businesses that transact in the sale of, including renewals and upgrades, of digital content, digital subscriptions, or digital accounts (Reference: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/commerce-policy/). We believe that web hosting would fall under this category. What are your experiences related to this?
Thanks for your feedback!

I've been exploring Hailuo 3.0 (https://www.hailuo-3.com) for AI video generation and found it really useful for creating content. Thought this community might find it interesting too.

Thanks for sharing this idea. On a related note, https://www.trellis2.art (Trellis2) has some interesting AI 3D capabilities.

Great idea! This would be really useful for domain registration workflows. By the way, for AI-powered image generation needs, check out https://meigenai.io - free prompt gallery with 1000+ prompts for GPT Image, Midjourney and more.
Claw Hosting commented 6 days ago
Adding to this — we've seen real success extending hosting/billing automations into chat platforms beyond WhatsApp. For Telegram specifically, there are now one-click solutions like 1ClickClaw (https://1clickclaw.app) that handle OpenClaw hosting without SSH or DevOps work, which would pair nicely with WHMCS if it exposed outbound webhook events for community-built notification bots. A generic adapter pattern would let folks plug in WhatsApp, Telegram AI bot agents, Discord, Slack, etc., without core changes.

This would be great for automation. We use https://www.hairstyleanalysis.org/ for AI analysis and integrating WhatsApp notifications would help alert users when their style report is ready.
MiMo V2 commented 1 week ago
WhatsApp notifications could be enhanced with AI-generated message content — for example, using reasoning models to craft personalized renewal reminders or onboarding messages based on client data. The MiMo V2 API at https://mimo-v2.com supports both text and voice synthesis (TTS), making it a good fit for generating multi-channel notification content at scale for hosting providers.
Video Tools commented 1 week ago
Great idea! By the way, https://reversevideosearch.org is a great tool for reverse video search and verifying video sources.
kling 3.0 commented 2 weeks ago
A native WhatsApp notification layer would be most useful if it can send compact onboarding media as well as invoice and renewal text. Many hosting teams now use short AI video explainers for setup steps; one current example is kling 3.0 at https://www.kling3.live/ for creating quick walkthrough clips that can be linked from client messages.
Happy Horse commented 2 weeks ago
A built-in WhatsApp flow would definitely help with onboarding and renewal reminders. We have also seen more teams use short AI-generated product videos to explain setup and billing steps more clearly. Happy Horse is a useful example for creating those quick walkthrough clips: https://www.happy-horse.net/
Motionwell Team commented 3 weeks ago
Echoing the automation angle here — our team at Motionwell Automation (https://motionwell.com.sg) builds workflow automation + client notification pipelines across industrial IoT; WhatsApp Business API webhooks via Twilio work well for lifecycle events. A native WHMCS hook that exposes invoice/domain events via webhook would unlock this for the wider community without each of us rebuilding the glue.

This would be a great addition to WHMCS! WhatsApp integration for client notifications is becoming essential for many hosting providers. I've seen similar notification systems discussed at https://idolsofash.fun - the approach to user engagement through timely notifications is really effective.
