If the phone that owns the WhatsApp number is the only device you have, you can’t scan a code shown on its own screen. Link with a code instead: enter that phone’s WhatsApp number, then on the phone open WhatsApp → Linked devices → Link a device → Link with phone number instead and type the code shown here.

Your paid plan for hosted WhatsApp sending. “Remaining” counts down only when a message is actually handed to WhatsApp — queued messages don’t use balance.

Live view of your queue: what’s waiting, what was sent, what WhatsApp confirmed as delivered or read, and why anything failed. “Sent” means WhatsApp accepted the message; “delivered” means it reached the recipient’s phone.

These control HOW your messages go out. Sensible defaults are already applied — only change them if you know why.

A pause between every two messages, like a person sending by hand. Default: random 8–25 seconds. A random range is safer than a fixed delay; very short delays increase the risk of WhatsApp limiting your number.

Appends a short reference like [Ref: K7X2P9] to each message so no two messages are identical — this helps avoid WhatsApp’s duplicate-message detection when sending the same notice to many parents. Example: “Fee reminder for March… Regards, EDUBase [Ref: K7X2P9]”. Off by default.

See whether a phone number can receive WhatsApp messages before you send to it.

Messages you queue in EDUBase (fee reminders, results, notices…) are sent from your linked WhatsApp number automatically while the connection above is active. Keep the linked phone online and charged. Signing out only leaves this page — your WhatsApp stays linked and sending. Use Stop to pause sending, or Re-link to switch phones.
