The Fetch WhatsApp Contact Data API is a reliable and efficient solution designed to instantly validate whether a phone number is associated with a WhatsApp account. By returning a simple boolean output—true or false—it enables developers, businesses, and service providers to integrate real-time number verification into their applications and workflows.
At its core, the API eliminates uncertainty when working with phone numbers by confirming if a target contact is active on WhatsApp. This functionality is particularly useful in scenarios such as customer engagement, marketing campaigns, lead generation, and user onboarding, where knowing whether a recipient can be reached via WhatsApp adds significant value. Instead of sending messages blindly or maintaining outdated lists, businesses can optimize their communication strategies and reduce unnecessary costs by ensuring they only reach valid WhatsApp users.
The Fetch WhatsApp Contact Data API is built with simplicity in mind. Developers can easily implement it with minimal configuration, making it an ideal tool for both small projects and enterprise-scale applications. The response structure is straightforward: a query with a phone number returns either “true” if the number is registered on WhatsApp or “false” if it is not. This clear format ensures seamless integration into existing workflows without the need for complex processing.
In addition to enhancing communication strategies, the API also plays an important role in fraud prevention and user verification. For example, platforms that require mobile registration can use it as a layer of authentication to confirm that users are providing active, WhatsApp-enabled phone numbers. This contributes to improved data quality, better customer targeting, and enhanced trust between businesses and their audiences.
Overall, the Fetch WhatsApp Contact Data API is a powerful, fast, and lightweight tool that supports a wide range of use cases across industries. Whether for marketing optimization, contact management, lead qualification, or user validation, it provides an essential capability that helps organizations streamline processes, improve efficiency, and maximize the impact of their communication strategies with accurate and real-time WhatsApp number verification.
Instantly validates whether a phone number is registered with WhatsApp, returning true or false for quick verification and integration.

The API returns a simple boolean output indicating whether a specified phone number is registered on WhatsApp. The response will be either "true" if the number is active on WhatsApp or "false" if it is not.
The response from the API is structured as a JSON object containing a single field that indicates the validation result. For example, a successful query will return `{"isRegistered": true}` or `{"isRegistered": false}`.
The primary parameter for the GET WhatsApp Validation endpoint is the phone number you wish to validate. It should be formatted according to international standards, including the country code.
Common use cases include customer engagement, marketing campaigns, lead generation, and user onboarding. Businesses can ensure they are reaching valid WhatsApp users, optimizing communication efforts and reducing costs.
The API relies on real-time validation against WhatsApp's infrastructure, ensuring that the data returned reflects the current status of the phone number. Regular updates and checks help maintain high accuracy.
The primary field in the response is `isRegistered`. A value of "true" indicates the phone number is active on WhatsApp, while "false" indicates it is not. This clear output allows for straightforward integration into applications.
Users can leverage the boolean output to filter contact lists, ensuring that only valid WhatsApp numbers are targeted for messaging. This enhances communication strategies and improves engagement rates.
The API is designed to validate phone numbers globally, as long as they are formatted correctly with the appropriate country code. This broad coverage makes it suitable for international applications.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
Prices are listed in USD (United States Dollar), EUR (Euro), CAD (Canadian Dollar), AUD (Australian Dollar), and GBP (British Pound). We accept all major debit and credit cards. Our payment system uses the latest security technology and is powered by Stripe, one of the world's most reliable payment companies. If you have any trouble paying by card, just contact us at [email protected]
Additionally, if you already have an active subscription in any of these currencies (USD, EUR, CAD, AUD, GBP), that currency will remain for subsequent subscriptions. You can change the currency at any time as long as you don't have any active subscriptions.
The local currency shown on the pricing page is based on the country of your IP address and is provided for reference only. The actual prices are in USD (United States Dollar). When you make a payment, the charge will appear on your card statement in USD, even if you see the equivalent amount in your local currency on our website. This means you cannot pay directly with your local currency.
Occasionally, a bank may decline the charge due to its fraud protection settings. We suggest reaching out to your bank initially to check if they are blocking our charges. Also, you can access the Billing Portal and change the card associated to make the payment. If these does not work and you need further assistance, please contact our team at [email protected]
Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.
API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.
Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.
To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.
To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, refer to the 'X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining' field in the response header. For example, if your plan allows 1,000 requests per month and you've used 100, this field in the response header will indicate 900 remaining calls.
To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the 'X-Zyla-RateLimit-Limit' response header. For instance, if your plan includes 1,000 requests per month, this header will display 1,000.
The 'X-Zyla-RateLimit-Reset' header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3,600, it means 3,600 seconds are left until the limit resets.
Yes, you can cancel your plan anytime by going to your account and selecting the cancellation option on the Billing page. Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Additionally, upon cancellation, you will no longer have access to the service, even if you have remaining calls left in your quota.
You can contact us through our chat channel to receive immediate assistance. We are always online from 8 am to 5 pm (EST). If you reach us after that time, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Additionally, you can contact us via email at [email protected]
To give you the opportunity to experience our APIs without any commitment, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost. This trial can be used only once, so we recommend applying it to the API that interests you the most. While most of our APIs offer a free trial, some may not. The trial concludes after 7 days or once you've made 50 requests, whichever occurs first. If you reach the 50 request limit during the trial, you will need to "Start Your Paid Plan" to continue making requests. You can find the "Start Your Paid Plan" button in your profile under Subscription -> Choose the API you are subscribed to -> Pricing tab. Alternatively, if you don't cancel your subscription before the 7th day, your free trial will end, and your plan will automatically be billed, granting you access to all the API calls specified in your plan. Please keep this in mind to avoid unwanted charges.
After 7 days, you will be charged the full amount for the plan you were subscribed to during the trial. Therefore, it's important to cancel before the trial period ends. Refund requests for forgetting to cancel on time are not accepted.
When you subscribe to an API free trial, you can make up to 50 API calls. If you wish to make additional API calls beyond this limit, the API will prompt you to perform an "Start Your Paid Plan." You can find the "Start Your Paid Plan" button in your profile under Subscription -> Choose the API you are subscribed to -> Pricing tab.
Payout Orders are processed between the 20th and the 30th of each month. If you submit your request before the 20th, your payment will be processed within this timeframe.
