GET A PROPOSAL - October 20, 2025
Hey everyone,
After a long process of testing, rejections, and learning, I finally got approved as a Meta Tech Provider for the WhatsApp Business Platform!
A lot of people keep asking how I did it, what documents I submitted, and what kind of video Meta expects during the App Review process so I decided to write everything here in detail.
I’m also preparing a full walkthrough video, which I’ll upload soon on my official YouTube channel, where I’ll show every step I took from creating my Meta App to final approval.
Step 1: Create and Set Up Business Portfolio
I started by creating a Business Portfolio in Meta Business Manager.
Make sure your business details name, address, website, and phone number are accurate and match your legal documents. Meta checks every small detail, so if there’s a mismatch, they’ll delay or reject your verification.
Step 2: Register as a Meta Developer
Next, I went to the Meta Developers platform and created a new App.
Choose the Business App type, then add the WhatsApp product.
You’ll also need to add your privacy policy URL and a valid contact email.
This is the app you’ll later submit for review.
Step 3: Prepare a Working Demo
This is the most important part!
Meta doesn’t approve based on just text or descriptions they need to see how your platform actually works. So I built a small CRM interface that:
Then I recorded a 3-minute demo video showing every step. That video was the key to passing the review.
Step 4: Submit for App Review
In the App Dashboard, I went to App Review and requested the necessary permissions:
I uploaded my demo video and added written instructions for the Meta reviewer — including how they could test my app.
I made sure to clearly explain:
That clarity helped a lot.
Step 5: Complete Business Verification
It’s very important that the details on your documents match exactly with your Business Manager info.
Step 6: Access Verification
Once Business Verification passed, I completed Access Verification in the App Settings. This confirmed to Meta that my app would be used for legitimate business communication not bulk messaging or spam.
Step 7: Wait for Final Approval
After completing all verification steps and demonstrating a real business use-case, Meta finally approved my app as a Tech Provider.
It took around 1–3 days total from my first submission to final approval.
My Tips for Anyone Applying
My Upcoming YouTube Video
I’ve recorded the full process from creating the app to getting the final approval email and I’ll be uploading it soon on my official YouTube channel. In that video, I’ll show:
How I structured my demo flow
My exact video script
What I wrote in the App Review form
How to handle rejections or feedback
So if you’re trying to get approved or facing issues with your app review, that video will help you step-by-step.
Final Words
Getting approved as a Meta Tech Provider isn’t difficult if you follow the process correctly. Meta mainly wants to see authenticity, compliance, and a working use-case. If your product really helps businesses communicate responsibly through WhatsApp, you’ll get approved too.
