Official n8n plugin with 20+ native Wazzap nodes. Triggers by message, keyword, schedule or CRM event. Actions to send, schedule, qualify, transfer, sync — drag and drop. Included in every plan.
3 bottlenecks killing productivity — and how you solve them with automation.
A new lead comes in. Someone has to: send the welcome message, ask 3 qualifying questions, tag in CRM, assign the right agent. Multiply that by 100 leads a day and your team can't scale.
Trigger: "new message from unknown number". Actions: send welcome, wait for reply, qualify with AI, tag, assign. Built in 15 minutes via drag-and-drop. Runs 24/7 without your team.
Zapier is designed for simple integrations (when X happens, do Y). For WhatsApp flows with conditions, loops, waits and branching it charges you Pro/Team and the delay between tasks runs 1-15 minutes.
n8n is "Zapier without the limits": complex conditions, loops, waits, branching. Official Wazzap plugin with native triggers and actions — execution in seconds, not minutes. Included at no extra cost.
If you want advanced flows, you usually end up hiring a dev to wire up webhooks, manage state, retries and failures. 2-4 months and the maintenance cost keeps hitting every month.
Drag-and-drop nodes on a canvas. n8n handles state, retries and errors for you. If you need something super specific, you can drop in a JavaScript node — but 95% of cases don't require it.
Built and maintained by Wazzap, not by the community. 20+ native nodes available directly in the n8n catalog. Constant updates with every new platform feature.
Message received, keyword detected, new number, message unread for X time, CRM event, specific schedule, external form. Real-time triggers — not polling every N minutes.
Send message, send file/audio/image, schedule a future message, tag contact, transfer to a human agent, sync with HighLevel/Chatwoot, call AI, export list, launch bulk campaign.
The entire n8n library is available: Google Sheets, Stripe, Shopify, Calendly, Notion, Slack, Airtable, Postgres. If your tool has an API or webhook, n8n connects it. WhatsApp stops being a silo.
No code, no servers, no developers in the middle.
You paste your Wazzap API key into the official n8n plugin (included in cloud or self-hosted). Secure connection in 30 seconds. The 20+ Wazzap nodes show up in the catalog immediately.
You drag a trigger (message received, keyword, schedule), connect action nodes (send, tag, sync, call AI), add conditions and branching if you need them. Live preview with real data.
Activate the workflow and it starts running. You see every execution in the log (what triggered it, what happened at each step, how long it took, if it failed). Automatic retries, alerts if something breaks — no monitoring required from you.
"I had 2 people doing manual lead greeting, qualification and assignment. I built the workflow in n8n in one afternoon and freed up both people for higher-value work. Immediate ROI."
"I tried Zapier for this and it cost me $79/mo just in WhatsApp tasks — and each step took 5-10 minutes. I migrated to n8n with the official Wazzap plugin, instant execution and zero added cost."
"Out of the 12 marketers I know who automate WhatsApp, 10 use Wazzap. The n8n integration is what sets Wazzap apart from ManyChat or Landbot — real flexibility."
The 3 real ways to automate WhatsApp — so you can choose based on your volume and complexity.
| Wazzap + n8n | Zapier | Building custom (dev) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | $19/mo (n8n included or self-host) | $29–$799/mo (per tasks) | $$$$ developer |
| Native WhatsApp nodes / triggers | 20+ native Wazzap nodes | 2-3 generic actions | You build them |
| Latency between triggers and actions | Seconds (real-time) | 1-15 minutes (polling) | Whatever you design |
| Workflows with conditions / loops | ✓ Native in n8n | Limited (Pro+) | Whatever you design |
| Retries and error handling | ✓ Built-in in n8n | Limited | You build it |
| Time to set up your first workflow | 15 minutes | 30 min - 2 hours | 1-4 weeks |
| Connection with 400+ external apps | ✓ Full n8n catalog | ✓ 5,000+ apps | You build them |
| Maintenance | Zero — n8n and plugin auto-updated | Zero | Your team |
| Code customization if you need it | ✓ JavaScript / Python nodes | Limited (Code by Zapier) | Total |
| Self-hostable | ✓ n8n self-hosted optional | ✗ Cloud only | Yes (it's yours) |
When NOT to use n8n + Wazzap? If your flow is 100% linear and simple (when X message arrives, do Y) and you won't scale past 5-10 workflows, Zapier may be enough. For anything with conditions, branching, waits or multiple integrations, n8n + Wazzap wins on flexibility and speed.
All of these solutions have native nodes in n8n — ready to combine.
Natural combo: your workflow calls AI when it needs to reason or qualify.

See plans and pricingNo. n8n is 100% visual — you drag nodes, connect them with lines and configure parameters from a form-like interface. 95% of workflows are built without touching code. If you need something super specific, you can drop in a JavaScript or Python node — but it's optional.
The official Wazzap plugin is free. n8n has 2 options: (1) n8n Cloud with a free plan for light use or ~$20/mo for production, (2) Self-host free if you have a server (recommended for heavy use). Either option is much cheaper than Zapier at serious volumes.
Yes — the full n8n library (400+ integrations) is available: Google Sheets, Stripe, Shopify, Calendly, Notion, Slack, Airtable, Postgres, MySQL, etc. If your tool has an API or webhook, n8n connects it. WhatsApp stops being a silo and integrates with your full stack.
No limits on the Wazzap side. The limit depends on your n8n plan: Cloud Free allows ~5,000 executions/mo, paid plans go to 50,000+. Self-host is unlimited (limited only by your server).
You decide. Most start with n8n Cloud (nothing to maintain) and migrate to self-host when volume grows to save cost. The official Wazzap plugin works identically in both options.
Message received (from any number or a specific one), keyword detected, new number (lead), message unread after X time, CRM event (HighLevel/Chatwoot), specific schedule (cron), external webhook, form, calendar event. Combinable with AND/OR conditions.
n8n has configurable automatic retries (attempts, delays, exponential backoff). If it keeps failing after retries, it's logged with the exact error. You can set up email or Slack alerts to notify you of critical failures. Nothing is silently lost.
