It has been talked about for a long time that in the future WhatsApp could be confronted with advertisements. Now that is exactly what is supposed to become a reality. All details.

Don't worry: you will still not see any ads in your chats. It is different with WhatsApp status. From the beginning of 2019, company advertisements will be displayed here inform of new stories.

WhatsApp status as a place for advertisements

Almost 450 million users use WhatsApp status every day to share what they are doing. This makes it the ideal place for advertising because it reaches a large number of users there.

For example, Netflix can display information about films and series and airlines can inform about delays. From now on it should also be possible to contact these companies. If you don't want to see messages from a certain company, you can block them like a normal contact.

would like to switch to telegram completely, but far too few people and no permanent end-to-end encryption.
