Vonage / Messages

Elevate customer experience with rich social chats

Easily send messages via Vonage Messages

Nexmo is now called Vonage, but there are still references to Nexmo in our URLs, code snippets and message templates.

Vonage's Messages API is a gateway to popular social chat apps such as WhatsApp Business, Facebook Messenger, Viber and SMS. It takes the complexity of hosting and scaling messaging and WhatsApp software off your hands. The API allows you to send notifications, customer service messages and other essential information your customers need on your customer's favorite messaging channel. For instance, leverage the WhatsApp for Business location feature to send them location information and enrich your messages with images, audio, video and files. All without having to worry about the privacy and security of your chats. This way you can focus on elevating your customer's experience.

Enrich your messages with location information, images, audio, video and files. For example, a customer waiting for a delivery can share their current location via WhatsApp, and have it delivered where they need it. If the package arrives damaged, the customer can simply send a photo.
