# Support for onboarded business customers

Updated: Nov 14, 2025

This document is intended to solve common problems encountered by business customers who have been onboarded onto the WhatsApp Business Platform by a [solution provider](https://developers.facebook.com/documentation/business-messaging/whatsapp/solution-providers/overview).

## Contacting support

If you were onboarded to the WhatsApp Business Platform by a solution provider and you have [registered](https://developers.facebook.com/async/registration/) as a Meta developer, you can get help by opening a Direct Support ticket using the **Ask a Question** button at:

[https://business.facebook.com/direct-support/](https://business.facebook.com/direct-support/)

See our [Direct Support Information](https://www.facebook.com/business/help/182669425521252) Help Center article for more information about Direct Support.

## Billing and payments

### Billing and payment support

To get support specifically related to billing, payments, and payment methods, open a [Direct Support](https://business.facebook.com/direct-support/) ticket with the following form selections:

**Topic** — **Dev: Billing, Credit & Pricing**
**Request Type** — **Credit Card Billing**

If you do not see the **Dev: Billing, Credit & Pricing** topic, please contact your Tech Provider or Tech Partner and ask them to open a ticket for you.

### Add a payment method

If you have been onboarded to the WhatsApp Business Platform by a Tech Provider or Tech Partner, you must add a payment method to your WhatsApp Business Account before you can use their app to send and receive messages to WhatsApp users.

See our [Add a credit card to your WhatsApp Business Platform account](https://www.facebook.com/business/help/488291839463771) Help Center article to learn how to add a payment method to your account.

Start onboarding process using the [coexistence](https://developers.facebook.com/documentation/business-messaging/whatsapp/embedded-signup/onboarding-business-app-users#onboarding-whatsapp-business-app-users--aka--coexistence--) flow.

## Display names

Once a business phone number’s display name is reviewed, business customers can change their display name using WhatsApp Manager. Newly edited display names must under display name review again.

To edit a display name via WhatsApp Manager:

Access WhatsApp Manager at [https://business.facebook.com/wa/manage/home/](https://business.facebook.com/wa/manage/home/).
Navigate to **Account tools** > **Phone numbers**.
Click the phone number.
Click the **Profile** tab.
Under **Display name**, use the **Edit** button to submit a new name.

This action, as well as the review outcome, triggers a [phone\_number\_name\_update](https://developers.facebook.com/documentation/business-messaging/whatsapp/webhooks/reference/phone_number_name_update) webhook.

## Unable to send template messages

If you are unable to send template messages, you likely have not added a valid payment method to your account. See our [Add a credit card to your WhatsApp Business Platform account](https://www.facebook.com/business/help/488291839463771) Help Center article to learn now to add a valid payment method.
