Customers see your business name as they do today, and your team answers from Abidjan and Bouaké or anywhere else. In Côte d’Ivoire, shops and services in Abidjan sell a great deal through WhatsApp conversations and Facebook pages. EliteTeQ Inbox brings both into one place for the team. Customers in Côte d’Ivoire 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 Abidjan: 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:** +225 (e.g. +225 07 00 00 00 00) - **Office hours:** Run on Abidjan time (GMT) - **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 Côte d'Ivoire Customers in Côte d'Ivoire pay with Orange Money, MTN MoMo, Moov Money and Wave wallets, cards, and cash, so when a sale closes on WhatsApp the customer may confirm payment in the chat, and your team needs to see that message quickly. ### [Abidjan](https://eliteteqpos.com/abidjan/) Abidjan Autonomous District · Côte d'Ivoire's economic capital and principal port Abidjan is the commercial centre of francophone West Africa, and its retail geography is genuinely segmented: the business district of Plateau, the dense trading quarters of Adjamé and Treichville, and the higher-basket restaurant and retail corridors of Cocody and Marcory each behave differently. Plateau trades on weekdays for offices, Adjamé and Treichville run dense low-margin market commerce, and Cocody and Marcory carry higher-basket retail and restaurants. Each has its own peak hour. Client enquiries from Abidjan get an owner and a follow-up instead of sitting in someone’s personal chats. ### [Yamoussoukro](https://eliteteqpos.com/yamoussoukro/) Yamoussoukro Autonomous District · Côte d'Ivoire's political capital Yamoussoukro is the official capital and an administrative and institutional centre rather than a trading one, so retail and hospitality demand follows government activity, conferences and visitor flows more than market days. Commerce follows the institutional calendar — conferences, official visits and government activity — rather than market days, leaving quiet stretches between. Most businesses hold a single site. Client enquiries from Yamoussoukro get an owner and a follow-up instead of sitting in someone’s personal chats. ### [Bouaké](https://eliteteqpos.com/bouake/) Vallée du Bandama · Côte d'Ivoire's second city and a central trade junction Bouaké sits at the junction of the country's north–south road and rail routes, which makes it a redistribution point for goods moving between Abidjan and the interior and on toward Mali and Burkina Faso. Cash and mobile money dominate settlement. Goods arrive from Abidjan by road and rail and leave for the interior and the northern borders, so the town handles more transit volume than its own population would suggest. Client enquiries from Bouaké get an owner and a follow-up instead of sitting in someone’s personal chats. ### EliteTeQ Inbox in every city of Côte d'Ivoire - [Abidjan](https://eliteteqpos.com/abidjan/): Abidjan Autonomous District, Côte d'Ivoire's economic capital and principal port - [Yamoussoukro](https://eliteteqpos.com/yamoussoukro/): Yamoussoukro Autonomous District, Côte d'Ivoire's political capital - [Bouaké](https://eliteteqpos.com/bouake/): Vallée du Bandama, Côte d'Ivoire's second city and a central trade junction - [San-Pédro](https://eliteteqpos.com/san-pedro/): Bas-Sassandra District, a major cocoa-exporting port - [Korhogo](https://eliteteqpos.com/korhogo/): Savanes District, the largest city in northern Côte d'Ivoire ## Questions businesses ask us **Is there a WhatsApp CRM for recruitment in Côte d'Ivoire?** Yes.
