WhatsApp Business will help your customers come across information about your business such as your contact information, website and location. A business owner will be able to install both the WhatsApp Messenger and WhatsApp Business on the same phone with separate numbers.

If you have two separate phone numbers, one for business and a personal one, then you should know that you could install both WhatsApp Messenger and WhatsApp Business on the same phone and register them with different numbers. It will help businesses to be more responsive to the users.

Guidelines for creating business profile names:
A business name must be representative of the business or organisation.
In order to be eligible for an "Official business account", business names can't include:
*All capital letters, except for acronyms. Only the first letter of each word can be capitalised, conjunctions may not be capitalised. For example:
Correct: Sweet Treats or Tammy's Burritos and Tacos
Incorrect: SWEET TREATS* or Tammy's Burritos And Tacos
*Any extra spaces between words. Business names must use single spacing. Unnecessary punctuation such as Emoji, symbols (example: ®)
* Consecutive non-alphanumeric characters (characters which are neither numbers nor letters). Any of these special characters: ~!@#$%^&*()_+:;"'{}[]\|<>,/?. Any variation of the word "WhatsApp". Learn more by visiting our Brand Guidelines.
Also, business names can't consist of only:
*A person's full name
*A generic term (example: Fashion)
*A generic geographic location (example: New York)
*Less than three characters
If your business account is listed as an "Official business account", changing your business name might result in your account losing its "Official business account" status.
