The Unimax difference
Why Unimax, not a WhatsApp-only app?
We’re a communications provider
Most WhatsApp tools stop at the inbox. Unimax also runs your business lines, Cloud PBX, call centre and call recording.
Conversations stay with the business
Every chat lives in a shared inbox the business owns, not on an employee’s phone or in a group chat.
One provider, one bill
WhatsApp, voice, connectivity and software from one South African partner.
POPIA consent
Record and respect each person’s permission to be contacted.
Opt-out handling
Anyone who replies STOP is removed automatically.
Meta-approved templates
Reminders, confirmations and announcements go out on approved WhatsApp templates.
