The Problem

Most Businesses Lose Customers Before They Even Reply

Customers expect instant responses. When you're busy or offline, they've already messaged your competitor and booked.

68%
Enquiries Never Replied To
of WhatsApp messages go unanswered within the same business day — lost revenue, every day.
4.5hrs
Average Response Time
The typical SA SME takes over 4 hours to reply. Your customer booked elsewhere in that time.
R8k+
Monthly Revenue Lost
Average service business loses R8,000+ per month in unbooked, unfollowed, unrecovered leads.
0
Follow-Ups Sent
Most businesses never follow up on leads who didn't book. ChatSched does it automatically.
53%
Missed Bookings
of interested customers never received a quote and booked a competitor. ChatSched fixes this.

Everything You Need to Know

Not at all. If you can use WhatsApp, you can set up ChatSched. Our onboarding walks you through every step — add your business name, services, prices, and hours. Most businesses are live within 60 minutes of signing up, with no technical help required.
Yes. ChatSched connects to your existing WhatsApp Business number via the official WhatsApp Business API. Your clients keep messaging the same number they always have — they'll just notice that responses now arrive instantly, any time of day or night.
Absolutely. ChatSched is fully POPIA-compliant and built on enterprise-grade infrastructure with end-to-end encryption. Your data and your customers' data are never sold or shared with third parties. See our POPIA Compliance Statement for full details.
Yes, always. ChatSched handles automated responses by default, but you can jump into any conversation and take over manually at any time. The system detects when you're actively chatting and pauses automation for that conversation. You're always in control.
Your 7-day trial gives you full access to all features with no credit card required. After 7 days, choose a paid plan or your account is automatically paused — no charge. Subscriptions are billed monthly via PayFast or EFT. Cancel any time, no penalty, no questions asked. Your data remains accessible for 30 days after cancellation.
If a customer asks something outside what you've configured, ChatSched sends a polite holding message and immediately notifies you on WhatsApp so you can respond personally. Your customers will never receive an embarrassing wrong answer.
Yes. ChatSched automatically detects the language the customer writes in and responds fluently in that language. It currently supports English, Afrikaans, Zulu, Xhosa, Sotho, and more. No additional setup required — it works automatically from day one.
Most businesses are fully live within 60 minutes. Fill in your business details, add services and pricing, set your hours, and connect your WhatsApp Business number. After that, ChatSched starts responding automatically. We also offer a free onboarding call if you'd like hands-on help.
