# No customer waits for the phone: Shared WhatsApp inbox in Jordan

**Your team answers customers from one business number, each from their own login, without stepping on each other’s replies.**

WhatsApp on one phone works until two people need to answer at once, or the person holding it goes home. EliteTeQ Inbox moves your business number into a shared inbox that works on any computer or phone, and gives every chat a clear owner. Staff in Amman and Irbid answer the same +962 number at the same time.

- Each teammate signs in with their own login
- Assign, transfer and @mention on any chat
- Greeting, away message and office hours per number
- New chats shared out in turn with auto-assign

## The problems of one business phone

> Customers message at nine at night and nobody answers until morning.

Set office hours for each number, in Amman time. After hours, customers get your away message straight away, and their chat waits at the top of the list for the morning.

> Rania ends up answering every chat, because the phone lives at the till.

Tick who handles the number and turn on auto-assign. Each new customer goes to the next person in turn.

> The 24 hours passed and now WhatsApp won’t let us reply.

Every chat shows how long you have left to reply. When the window closes, send an approved template from the same box.

### Who answers your customers when the phone holder goes home?

Tell us how many people should answer. We set up logins, auto-assign and office hours with you on WhatsApp, usually in one sitting.

## How a shared WhatsApp inbox works

Customers message the same number they always have; your team answers from the inbox.

1. **A customer writes** — Rania messages your +962 business number. The chat appears in the inbox for everyone allowed to see that number.
2. **It goes to one person** — Auto-assign gives new chats to the next teammate in turn, or anyone can take it. The chat shows whose it is.
3. **The team works on it together** — The owner leaves an internal comment, “@Omar offer free delivery”, that the customer never sees.
4. **Nothing is left waiting** — Waiting chats rise to the top, and a countdown shows how long you have before WhatsApp’s 24-hour reply window closes.

## What is a shared WhatsApp inbox?

A shared WhatsApp inbox lets several staff answer customers from one WhatsApp Business number at the same time, each from their own login. EliteTeQ Inbox does this on the official WhatsApp Business Platform: chats are assigned to one teammate, internal comments stay inside the team, and the owner sees every conversation in Jordan.

- One number, many logins, on computer or phone
- Each chat assigned to one teammate
- Internal comments the customer never sees
- Owners and admins see every chat

## What a shared inbox fixes

The everyday problems of one business phone, one at a time.

### Every chat has an owner

Assign a chat by hand, or turn on auto-assign so each new customer goes to the next teammate in turn. Transfer a chat with a handover note and the new owner gets an alert.

- Round-robin auto-assign per number
- Transfers with handover notes
- Two people can still reply if they need to
- Bulk-assign many chats at once

### Greeting, away message and office hours

New customers get a greeting during office hours. Anyone who writes while you’re closed gets an away message, at most once every 12 hours. Hours run in Amman time.

- Set each day separately, including overnight shifts
- A different greeting and hours for each number
- Late messages never trigger an old auto-reply

### Templates for when the window closes

WhatsApp lets you reply freely for 24 hours after a customer writes. After that, or to message someone new, you send a template approved by WhatsApp. Create and track them in the app.

- Live preview while you write
- Status: in review, approved or rejected, with the reason
- Languages: English

### On the phone too

Install EliteTeQ Inbox on Android or iPhone from the browser. It looks and works like WhatsApp, with sounds, pop-ups and an unread badge.

- Notification sounds and pop-ups
- Swipe-friendly lists and pipeline
- Stay signed in for 90 days while in use

## WhatsApp Business app alone vs with EliteTeQ Inbox

You can keep the app; the inbox adds the team, in Amman, Irbid or anywhere else.

|---|---|
| One phone, plus a few linked devices | Every teammate on their own login |
| No way to say who handles a chat | Assign, transfer and auto-assign |
| Notes to staff go in another chat | Internal comments inside the chat |
| No record of who replied, or how fast | Reply speed per teammate in reports |
| Each number on its own phone | Several numbers in one inbox (Business plan) |

## EliteTeQ Inbox in Jordan

Customers keep messaging the same number, in its +962 format; only the way your team answers changes.

In Jordan, customers message businesses in Amman on WhatsApp and Facebook before buying. EliteTeQ Inbox puts both in one list for your team.

Customers in Jordan 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 Jordan 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:** +962 (e.g. +962 79 000 0000)
- **Office hours:** Run on Amman 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 Jordan

Customers in Jordan pay with CliQ instant transfers, eFAWATEERcom, cards, and contactless, so when a sale closes on WhatsApp the customer may confirm payment in the chat, and your team needs to see that message quickly.

### [Aqaba](https://eliteteqpos.com/aqaba/)

Aqaba Governorate · Jordan's only seaport and a special economic zone

Its port, Red Sea tourism and cruise traffic add strong seasonal and foreign-currency exposure. The binding constraint is configuring for the local regime rather than the national default. When Aqaba trade peaks, auto-assign spreads new WhatsApp chats across whoever is on shift.

### [Madaba](https://eliteteqpos.com/madaba/)

Madaba Governorate · a historic town south of Amman known for its mosaics

Madaba is a historic town south of Amman whose mosaics and nearby religious sites draw visitors, alongside a local trade in household goods and food. Visitors to the mosaics and nearby sites add to steady local trade, and many shops are family-run. When Madaba trade peaks, auto-assign spreads new WhatsApp chats across whoever is on shift.

### [Amman](https://eliteteqpos.com/amman/)

Amman Governorate · Jordan's capital and commercial centre

Amman holds the bulk of Jordan's formal retail, services and hospitality trade, spread across hills that separate commercial districts and give each a distinct customer profile. Arabic receipting is standard with English common in international-facing businesses, and card use is established alongside significant cash trade. Commercial districts spread across hills that separate them meaningfully, each with a distinct customer profile, and cash remains substantial alongside card. When Amman trade peaks, auto-assign spreads new WhatsApp chats across whoever is on shift.

## Questions businesses ask us

**Can two people reply to the same chat?**

Yes, and both replies are sent. To avoid double answers, assign the chat to one person.

**Can a teammate be limited to one number?**

Yes. Agents can be limited to certain numbers. Owners and admins always see everything.

**What’s the difference between the greeting and the away message?**

The greeting goes once to new customers during office hours. The away message goes to anyone who writes while you’re closed, at most once every 12 hours. Both are set per number.

**Why can’t we type a reply to some customers?**

It has been more than 24 hours since the customer last wrote. WhatsApp only allows an approved template until they reply again.

**How many new people can we message each day?**

New businesses can start conversations with 250 people a day. Meta raises it to 1,000, 10,000 and beyond after business verification and good-quality messaging. Replies to people who wrote first don’t count.

**Do customers see internal comments?**

Never. Comments are only for your team. Type @ and a name to mention a teammate.

**Can staff in Amman and Irbid share one WhatsApp number?**

Yes. Everyone signs in to EliteTeQ Inbox with their own login, from any computer or phone, and answers from the same business number. Chats can be assigned, transferred or shared out in turn, and agents can be limited to the numbers they handle. Office hours run on Amman time.

**Can we close on Friday and Saturday in Jordan?**

Yes. Office hours are set day by day for each WhatsApp number, so Friday and Saturday can be closed or short. Anyone who writes while you are closed gets your away message, at most once every 12 hours.
