Adding International Guests

Adding International Guests

Weddingkart supports adding international guests, ensuring smooth communication and seamless WhatsApp messaging across different countries.

🌍 Adding International Guests Manually

1️⃣ Navigate to Guest Management

  • Open the Guest Management section in the Weddingkart app.

  • Click on Add Manually.

2️⃣ Enter Guest Details

  • Fill in the guest's Name.

  • Enter their Phone Number with the correct country code (e.g., +1 for the USA, +44 for the UK, +971 for UAE).

  • Assign the guest to a group (optional).

  • Click Save to add the guest.

📥 Adding International Guests via Excel Import

If you are uploading a large number of international guests, use the Excel Import feature.

  • Ensure all phone numbers include the country code.

  • Format phone numbers correctly (e.g., +12025550123 for a US number).

  • If you forget to add country codes, the system will flag these as errors.

📌 Important Considerations for International Guests

✅ Automatic Country Code Assumption

  • If a phone number does not include a country code, the system will assume the country code of the person adding the guests.

  • For example, if you are an Indian user logged into the app with an Indian number (+91 9876543210), then all numbers without a country code will be assumed to be Indian (+91).

  • If all your guests are local, it is okay to omit the country code.

  • If you have a mix of local and international guests, make sure you add a country code (with +) for all international guests.

✅ WhatsApp Messaging Costs

  • WhatsApp messaging rates vary by country.

  • Check the Pricing for International Numbers for country-specific costs.

✅ Time Zone Differences

  • Be mindful of the guest's time zone when sending announcements.

  • Avoid sending messages at odd hours.

✅ Language Preferences

  • If guests speak different languages, consider segmenting them into groups for personalized messaging.

🚀 Best Practices for Managing International Guests

  • 📞 Always include the correct country code when adding phone numbers.

  • 💰 Check international messaging rates before sending bulk announcements.

  • 🌐 Group international guests separately for better targeting.

  • 📌 If you have both local and international guests, always add a +country code for international numbers to avoid incorrect assumptions.
