# Know which ad sold it: Click-to-WhatsApp ad lead tracking in Egypt

**When someone taps your ad and messages you, the inbox records the ad, flags the lead hot and counts it in your reports.**

Click-to-WhatsApp ads fill the business phone with “Hi, I saw your ad”, but nobody can say which ad worked or whether the leads were answered. EliteTeQ Inbox saves the ad on every lead it brings and shows you the result. Target customers in Cairo and Alexandria in Meta Ads Manager; every lead lands in the inbox with its ad.

- The ad headline saved on the lead
- Ad leads flagged hot for 72 hours
- Leads per ad and per day in reports
- Reply speed for ad leads

## Paying for ads, guessing the result

> “Hi, I saw your ad.” Great, but which ad?

The first message carries the ad. The chat shows the ad’s name from the first message, and the lead keeps it.

> Ad leads wait hours for a reply and go cold.

A greeting goes out the moment they write, auto-assign hands them to the next teammate, and they stay flagged hot for 72 hours.

> I can’t tell if the ad money came back.

Reports rank your ads by leads and by clients won, next to leads that came directly.

## How an ad lead is tracked

Nothing to tag by hand: WhatsApp passes the ad along with the first message.

1. **Someone taps your ad** — Mariam taps “Send message” on your Facebook or Instagram ad and WhatsApp opens with your number.
2. **The lead arrives with its ad** — The first message carries the ad, so the lead shows the ad headline and a link back to it.
3. **It goes to the top** — A lead from an ad is hot for 72 hours, so your team answers it before it goes cold.
4. **You count what each ad brought** — Reports show leads per day from ads vs direct, the top ads by leads, and how fast your team replied.

## How do I track leads from Click-to-WhatsApp ads?

Connect your WhatsApp Business number to EliteTeQ Inbox. When someone messages you from a Facebook or Instagram Click-to-WhatsApp ad, WhatsApp includes the ad with their first message; the inbox saves the ad headline on the lead, flags it hot for 72 hours, and counts it in reports by ad, for your campaigns in Egypt.

## EliteTeQ Inbox in Egypt

Replies inside the 24-hour window after a customer writes are free. Meta charges for template messages you start (marketing, authentication and most utility templates), priced by the customer’s country, so a template to a Egyptian number is billed at Meta’s Egypt rate. Chats that start from a Click-to-WhatsApp ad are free for 72 hours. Meta bills these charges to your own Meta account; they are not part of the EliteTeQ price.

Egyptian customers message a business on WhatsApp or through a Facebook page before they visit or order. EliteTeQ Inbox brings both channels into one list for your team in Cairo or Alexandria.

Customers in Egypt write in Arabic, English or both. Your team replies in the customer’s language inside the 24-hour window; template messages can currently be created in English.

The working week in Egypt runs Sunday to Thursday, and office hours are set day by day, so Friday can be closed and Saturday short or closed. Customers who write on the weekend get your away message, at most once every 12 hours, and their chats wait at the top of the list for Sunday morning.

- **Numbers:** +20 (e.g. +20 100 000 0000)
- **Office hours:** Run on Cairo time
- **Weekend:** Friday and Saturday
- **Templates:** English
- **Price:** From $29 a month, in US dollars
- **Paying:** Card, charged in Kenyan shillings at the day’s rate

## Selling on WhatsApp in Egypt

Cairo, Giza and Alexandria hold most formal commerce, with traditional market trade and modern retail running side by side on different payment mixes. Mandatory e-invoicing and Arabic right-to-left receipting apply nationally.

### [Giza](https://eliteteqpos.com/giza/)

Giza Governorate · a major urban centre and the site of the pyramids

Dense residential commerce and the country's most visited tourism site sit side by side, giving local cash shoppers and card-paying international visitors in the same business. The binding constraint is handling both cleanly on one sale under e-invoicing rules. Giza is simultaneously a dense residential and commercial area of greater Cairo and Egypt's most visited tourism site, which gives businesses here two very different customer bases: everyday local shoppers paying in cash, and international visitors paying by card and in foreign currency. Target Giza in Meta Ads Manager and see which ad brought each chat from the city.

### [Mansoura](https://eliteteqpos.com/mansoura/)

Dakahlia Governorate · a Nile Delta commercial and university city

Delta agriculture, a major medical school and healthcare employment set the rhythm, with pronounced term-time swings. Cash retains a larger share than Cairo's modern retail. The binding constraint is Arabic receipting and e-invoicing on a largely cash operation. Target Mansoura in Meta Ads Manager and see which ad brought each chat from the city.

### [Port Said](https://eliteteqpos.com/port-said/)

Port Said Governorate · a port city at the Mediterranean entrance to the Suez Canal

A long trading and import history means many businesses run wholesale and retail together. Port Said is a port city at the northern end of the Suez Canal with a long history of trading and import businesses. Target Port Said in Meta Ads Manager and see which ad brought each chat from the city.
