Customers see your business name as they do today, and your team answers from Cotonou and Porto-Novo or anywhere else. In Benin, many traders in Cotonou take orders by WhatsApp, including from customers across the border. EliteTeQ Inbox keeps those orders and questions in one shared list. Customers in Benin mostly write in French. Your team replies in French, and template messages for customers who haven’t written in 24 hours can be created in French too. Office hours are set day by day for each number. A common setup in Cotonou: weekdays open, Saturday mornings open, Sunday closed. Anyone who writes while you are closed gets your away message, at most once every 12 hours, and the chat waits at the top of the list for the morning. - **Numbers:** +229 (e.g. +229 01 00 00 00 00) - **Office hours:** Run on Cotonou time (WAT) - **Weekend:** Saturday and Sunday - **Templates:** English or French - **Price:** From $29 a month, in US dollars - **Paying:** Card, charged in Kenyan shillings at the day’s rate ## Selling on WhatsApp in Benin Cotonou's port drives a large re-export trade toward Nigeria and the interior, giving wholesale a strongly cross-border character. Dantokpa operates at a scale unlike the formal retail sector. ### [Bohicon](https://eliteteqpos.com/bohicon/) Zou Department · a commercial crossroads in central Benin near Abomey A busy market on the main north–south road draws traders and wholesale buyers. Bohicon sits on Benin's main north–south road and hosts one of the region's busiest markets, making it a stopping point for traders and goods. Mobile money (MTN MoMo, Moov Money) and cash are both common, and taxes are administered by the Direction Générale des Impôts. Client enquiries from Bohicon get an owner and a follow-up instead of sitting in someone’s personal chats. ### [Cotonou](https://eliteteqpos.com/cotonou/) Littoral Department · Benin's economic capital and main port Dantokpa operates at a scale and pace entirely unlike the city's formal retail and restaurant districts, and much of what passes through is bound for Nigeria. The binding constraint is cross-border pricing with more than one currency in play, recorded properly rather than negotiated and forgotten. Cotonou is Benin's commercial centre and port, and a substantial share of its trade is re-export toward Nigeria and the interior, which gives wholesale activity a cross-border character and makes multi-currency awareness genuinely useful. Client enquiries from Cotonou get an owner and a follow-up instead of sitting in someone’s personal chats. ### [Porto-Novo](https://eliteteqpos.com/porto-novo/) Ouémé Department · Benin's official capital Administrative employment and the nearby Nigerian border shape trade more than any market does, giving steady weekdays and cross-border price pressure. The binding constraint is a simple, reliable daily close for a single outlet that cannot afford to stop when the connection does. Porto-Novo is the constitutional capital and an administrative centre, with trade driven by public-sector activity and by proximity to the Nigerian border rather than by port logistics. Client enquiries from Porto-Novo get an owner and a follow-up instead of sitting in someone’s personal chats. ### EliteTeQ Inbox in every city of Benin - [Cotonou](https://eliteteqpos.com/cotonou/): Littoral Department, Benin's economic capital and main port - [Porto-Novo](https://eliteteqpos.com/porto-novo/): Ouémé Department, Benin's official capital - [Parakou](https://eliteteqpos.com/parakou/): Borgou Department, the commercial hub of northern Benin - [Abomey-Calavi](https://eliteteqpos.com/abomey-calavi/): Atlantique Department, a fast-growing urban area adjoining Cotonou - [Bohicon](https://eliteteqpos.com/bohicon/): Zou Department, a commercial crossroads in central Benin near Abomey ## Questions businesses ask us **Is there a WhatsApp CRM for marketing agencies in Benin?** Yes.
