Ordify vs. WhatsApp Business Catalog

The WhatsApp Business Catalog alternative built for WhatsApp ordering.

Looking for a WhatsApp Catalog alternative? Ordify Store Builder gives you a beautiful web storefront with a Google Sheet backend, avoiding strict approval delays, item limits, and Meta's rigid UI constraints.

No card · No commission · Cancel anytime

The native WhatsApp Business Catalog is built directly into WhatsApp. While convenient, it comes with major drawbacks: you must manually add products on a mobile device, wait for Meta's slow catalog reviews, face strict policy rejections, and you can't easily customize variants or add-ons. Ordify Store Builder gives you a beautiful public website catalog powered by Google Sheets. Anyone on the web can browse, build a cart, and place orders directly to your WhatsApp without needing to find you inside WhatsApp first.

Why it works

Built for shops, not for marketers.

Built for the WhatsApp handoff

Cart turns into a pre-filled WhatsApp message. No checkout to manage.

Catalog in Google Sheets

Your products live in a sheet you control — not in a WhatsApp Business Catalog admin you don't.

Zero commission

Orders go directly between your customer and your WhatsApp. We never see the money.

Single flat price

One monthly fee, unlimited orders. No per-conversation, per-transaction, or per-sale fees.

Live in under 10 minutes

Copy our template, fill it in, paste the link. Your store is online today.

Mobile-first by default

Most customers find you on their phone. The storefront is designed that way from the ground up.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Ordify Store Builder offers three key benefits: First, management is infinitely easier because you can bulk edit products, prices, and variants in Google Sheets. Second, you avoid Meta's strict automated catalog reviews which constantly reject items like food, health, or boutique products. Third, it acts as a real public website that ranks on Google, bringing in new search traffic.

Not at all. You can keep your WhatsApp catalog active and place your Ordify Store Builder storefront link in your WhatsApp Business profile and Instagram bio to give customers a premium web-browsing experience.
