Click to Chat lets anyone start a conversation with you on Arattai without saving your phone number in their contacts.
This feature is useful when you want people to quickly start a conversation with you using a simple link.
What Happens When Someone Opens the Link
When a user clicks or taps your link:
Arattai opens a chat with you. The user does not need to save the phone number.
If a message is included in the link, it appears automatically in the chat composer.
The user can edit the message before sending.

Using a username
Basic link:

Using the Text Parameter
