Installation & Setup
Get started with Wazera in a few simple steps.
1. Create Your Account
Sign up for a free account at wazera.com/register. No credit card required.
2. Connect WhatsApp
After signing in, navigate to Devices in your dashboard and click Connect WhatsApp. You'll be guided through Meta's WhatsApp Business setup flow.
Prerequisites
- A Meta Business account
- A phone number not already registered with WhatsApp
- Access to the Meta Business Manager
3. Install the Laravel Package (Optional)
If you want to integrate Wazera into your Laravel application:
composer require wazera/laravel
Publish the configuration file:
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=wazera-config
4. Get Your API Key
Navigate to API Keys in your dashboard and generate a new API key. Copy it immediately — it won't be shown again.
Add it to your .env file:
WAZERA_API_KEY=wz_live_your_key_here
WAZERA_BASE_URL=https://app.wazera.com/api/v1
5. Send a Test Message
use Wazera\Laravel\Facades\Wazera;
$response = Wazera::sendMessage([
'to' => '201234567890',
'message' => 'Hello from Wazera!'
]);
Or use cURL:
curl -X POST https://app.wazera.com/api/v1/messages/send \
-H "X-API-Key: wz_live_your_key_here" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"to": "201234567890", "message": "Hello from Wazera!"}'
