WhatsApp's Latest Beta Update: 'Status Ads' And 'Promoted Channels'

  • Meta is testing new advertising features on WhatsApp, including 'Status Ads' and 'Promoted Channels', available to select beta users on Android.
  • 'Status Ads' allow business accounts to post sponsored content in users' Status feeds, clearly labeled as 'sponsored', enabling user differentiation from personal posts.
  • The 'Promoted Channels' feature will help businesses become more visible in the WhatsApp channel directory, boosting engagement with potential followers.
  • Meta assures that these advertising features will not affect user privacy, as ads will only appear in public areas like Status and Channels, not in private chats.
