WhatsApp Commerce in 2026: How Whizzly® Powers Direct Takeaway Ordering & Service Bookings

With a 98% open rate on WhatsApp compared to barely 20% on email, meeting your customers in the app they already have open every hour is the fastest way to increase direct orders and appointments.

Meet Your Customers Where Their Attention Already Lives

Think about your own phone habits: how many unread promotional emails sit in your inbox right now versus how quickly you read a WhatsApp message?

That insight is why we engineered Whizzly® (whizzly.co.uk)—expanded into a three-way company between founder Brian Revie and company partners Brian Smith and John King—to bridge visual mobile web storefronts with instant WhatsApp fulfilment.

Frictionless Direct Ordering & Service Bookings

Rather than forcing mobile customers through ten-field registration forms and password resets, Whizzly® makes mobile commerce effortless:

  • Restaurant & Takeaway Ordering: Customers tap through visual menus, toggle between Click & Collect and Local Delivery, pay in one tap via Apple Pay / Google Pay, and get live kitchen updates in WhatsApp.
  • Barber, Salon & Service Bookings: Clients pick their service and time slot, pay a £5 or £10 no-show deposit in one tap, and receive their instant booking confirmation directly on WhatsApp.
  • Effortless Repeat Business: Customers can tap back into the storefront directly from their WhatsApp thread whenever they are ready to re-order.
