WhatsApp Business API for Indian firms that meet their buyers in Poznań
Poznań runs on meetings: fair weeks at MTP Poznań EXPO, a hundred thousand students, IT and R&D investors. Each meeting ends with a phone number. What you may send to it next depends on one question at a time.
A Poznań business
- Dzień dobry! We met at your stand at MTP Poznań EXPO. Could you send the catalogue for Poland?
- Dzień dobry, thank you for stopping by. Here is the catalogue, with delivery terms for Poznań.
- Thanks. If we order samples this week, can we follow the shipment here?
- Yes. Each update will arrive in this chat as the samples move, from dispatch in India to delivery.
For India-based businesses that meet Poznań buyers at its fair grounds, work with its software houses or recruit its students: which WhatsApp category each message to a Poznań contact belongs to, how the Polish clock lines up with IST, and what each message costs in rupees.

What may you send a contact from Poznań?
Every number you collect in Poznań, at a stand, a campus or a partner's office, leads to the same four questions. Answer them for your next message.
The tree is the same in any city, but Poznań feeds it unusual inputs: contacts from a single fair week, students who write in English, a software partner's team that messages your engineers all day. Most of those land in the first two outcomes, which is where an Indian team should start.
Marketing sits last for a reason. Polish law and the GDPR both bear on electronic offers, and the Poland guide explains what each requires; on WhatsApp, Meta's own opt-in rule applies on top.

Plan prices are monthly, in rupees, excluding GST; yearly billing is two months free. Messages are charged per delivered message on top of the plan, at the rate for the recipient’s country. Full details: InfiQ pricing. An applicant still on an Indian +91 number is billed at the India rate, ₹0.19 for a utility message. The converter shows złoty figures for budgeting a Poznań programme, but InfiQ invoices in rupees.

What an Indian team uses for Poznań
The parts of InfiQ that turn a stack of Poznań contacts into a programme.
Consent records and opt-out enforcement
Each contact's opt-in source and time are recorded, STOP replies are enforced at platform level (even against later imports), and the audit trail exports.
Opt-ins collected at a Poznań stand are stored with their source and time, so the marketing branch of the tree has evidence behind it, and STOP blocks later sends.

Keep a Polish and an English version of each quote, dispatch and reminder template, and track both through Meta's approval before the fair week ends.
Developer API and webhooks
A CRM or ERP can send the utility template the moment a sample ships or a quote changes, using scoped API keys and signed webhooks.

Guides for Poznań teams
Questions Poznań businesses ask
Question: We are exhibiting at IAC 2027 in Poznań. How should we collect WhatsApp opt-ins at the stand?
Answer: Ask for them explicitly: a form or QR code at the stand that says the visitor agrees to receive messages from your company on WhatsApp, with the number in international format. Record the source as the congress and the date. A scanned badge or business card is not WhatsApp opt-in.
Question: A Poznań distributor wants to follow our sample shipments on WhatsApp. What category are those updates?
Answer: Utility. Dispatch, arrival and delivery updates about samples the distributor asked for are utility templates, ₹1.07 per delivered message to a Polish number. A later message announcing a new product range would be marketing, ₹3.21, and needs their opt-in to offers.
Question: Our software partner's team in Poznań starts at 09:00. When does that fall in Chennai?
Answer: At 13:30 IST from late October to late March, while Poland keeps Central European Time, and at 12:30 IST in summer time. So the Poznań morning overlaps your Chennai afternoon, and a Poznań colleague's 17:00 question reaches you at 21:30 or 20:30.
Question: We recruit Indian students for universities in Poznań. Can one number message applicants in India and students already in the city?
Answer: Yes. Meta charges by the recipient's country code: a reminder to an applicant's +91 number costs ₹0.19, the same reminder to a student's +48 number ₹1.07. Both come from one WhatsApp number and appear on one rupee invoice.
Question: Several Poznań customers gave us +48 61 numbers on their invoices, and our templates never arrived. Why?
Answer: +48 61 is a Poznań landline, which usually has no WhatsApp account behind it. Ask for a mobile number: Polish mobiles are nine digits with no trunk 0, so store them as +48 followed by the nine digits, and keep the 61 line for calls.
Question: We joined Poznań Biznes Partner's workshop for foreign founders. If we register a company in Poznań, can it hold the InfiQ account?
Answer: InfiQ serves India-based businesses: it bills in rupees with GST and keeps customer data in India, so your Indian company is the natural account holder and can message Polish numbers at the Polish rate. If the account must belong to the business based in Poznań, talk to sales about whether InfiQ fits.
