Can I use “WhatsApp” facility in my number, which I already transferred the ownership to MyOperator?
✅ Yes. You can continue to use WhatsApp (personal or business) on your number even after transferring ownership to MyOperator.
🔄 How It Works
- OTP delivery: To activate WhatsApp, you’ll need a one-time password (OTP). Since SMS from the SIM is restricted after transfer, the OTP will be routed to you via MyOperator support.
- Multi-device login: If your WhatsApp is already linked on other devices (e.g., WhatsApp Web or companion mode), those connections remain active.
- Business API compatibility: WhatsApp Business API continues to work with your number after ownership transfer, provided you authenticate once through the OTP process.
✅ Steps to Activate WhatsApp After Transfer
- Install or open WhatsApp (personal or business) on your device.
- Enter your number that has been transferred to MyOperator.
- When prompted for OTP, contact MyOperator Support:
- 📧 Email: support@myoperator.com
- 💬 In-app chat support
- Use this template:Subject: OTP Request for WhatsApp Activation Hi Team, Please share the OTP for WhatsApp activation on [your number].
- Enter the OTP received from MyOperator into WhatsApp.
- ✅ WhatsApp will confirm activation once verified.
⚠️ Important Notes
- Existing chats & media: All your existing WhatsApp chats and backups remain intact.
- Restrictions: You cannot directly receive OTP via the old SIM after transfer. MyOperator handles OTP routing securely.
- Multiple logins: If you were already logged into WhatsApp Web or multi-device mode before transfer, those sessions stay active until you log out manually.
🎯 What You Can Expect
- Smooth continuation of WhatsApp services post-transfer.
- Ability to use both personal WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business / API.
- A clear OTP flow managed by MyOperator.
