Warm up

Ramp a new number up to activity gradually to lower the risk of a block.

A freshly connected number that starts sending a lot right away is easily flagged and blocked. Warm up mimics natural activity: warming accounts message each other automatically, growing the volume day by day.

The section lives under Campaigns → Warm up. The Start warm-up button on an inbox's Connection tab leads here too, with that number preselected.

Starting a warm-up: account, Start / Target / Ramp

How it works

A fresh number first stays silent for about a day (cooldown), then starts sending a few messages a day and gradually increases the count. Warm-up runs the conversations between accounts itself, on a schedule.

Starting

  1. Open Campaigns → Warm up.
  2. Pick a connected account.
  3. Set the ramp parameters:
    • Start / day — the volume to begin at.
    • Target / day — the volume to reach.
    • Ramp (days) — how many days to reach the target.
  4. Click Start warm-up.

The parameters are linked: the daily volume grows by no more than ≈14% a day, so Target, Start and Ramp adjust automatically — changing one corrects the others. Values that are too steep aren't rejected; they are widened to a safe ramp on save.

Peer countries

When the warm-up pool has known countries for the channel, a "Warm on numbers from" block appears under the ramp parameters, listing countries and how many numbers each has.

  • Warming against numbers from the same country the number will later write to builds a more believable local history.
  • The "top up with other countries if there aren't enough" checkbox allows mixing in the rest. It is off by default: with few matching numbers you simply get fewer messages a day — other countries are never mixed in silently.

Extra options

  • Skip the cooldown — if the number is already active, you can skip the silent day and start warming now.
  • Manual override — set the volume freely, bypassing the safe daily increase.

Manual override exceeds the safe ≈14%/day pace and raises the risk of a WhatsApp ban. Use it only if you know what you're doing.

Statuses and control

StatusMeaning
CooldownThe cooldown day is running, the number is silent.
Warming upThe account has started ramping up.
ActiveWarm-up is running normally.
PausedPaused manually.
CompletedReached the target volume.
FailedStopped because of sending errors.

A pause isn't always manual: the reason is shown next to the status — "paused manually", "the account went offline" or "too many sending errors".

You can pause, resume or remove a warm-up. The account page shows its health (sent/failed over 7 days), a chart of incoming and outgoing per day and recent messages. A number that finished warming is marked "Ready for campaigns" there — mass messaging can run from it.

Warm-up's internal messages are not billable and don't show up in Usage as a campaign.
