In some cases, you may need to delete the phone number associated with your WhatsApp API. Common reasons include:

  • Re-registering your number due to a previous setup issue

  • Migrating between API providers

  • Changing Meta Business ownership

  • Compliance, legal or GDPR reasons

In order to delete your number currently associated with Superchat, you need to delete it from the WhatsApp Manager in your Meta Business Suite.

Once completed, your number should be available within a few minutes.
