If you're a freelance manicurist, masseuse, personal trainer, tutor, or any other solo professional — this guide gets you set up in about 30 minutes with a dedicated business WhatsApp, even if you've never touched Meta's tools before.
如果你是自由職業者(美甲師、按摩師、健身教練、補習老師等),這份指南幫你在約 30 分鐘內完成設定,無需正式公司帳戶。
Before you start — what you'll need · 開始前準備
買一張新 SIM 卡
You need a separate phone number for your business WhatsApp — this keeps your personal and work messages completely separate. A cheap Hong Kong prepaid SIM works perfectly.
你需要一個獨立號碼作業務 WhatsApp,將私人和工作訊息完全分開。一張本地預付 SIM 卡就夠了。
China Mobile HK prepaid SIM — from any 7-Eleven, ~HKD 48
中國移動香港預付卡 — 7-Eleven 有售,約 HKD 48
3HK prepaid SIM — from 3 stores or Circle K, ~HKD 30–80
3香港預付卡 — 3門市或 Circle K,約 HKD 30–80
SmarTone prepaid — from SmarTone stores, ~HKD 68
SmarTone 預付 — SmarTone 門市,約 HKD 68
You only need this SIM active during setup. After that, clients message the number but you reply through PingHand on your main phone.
只需在設定期間保持此 SIM 有效。之後客戶發訊息到這個號碼,你透過 PingHand 在主手機回覆。
建立免費 Meta Business Manager 帳戶
Meta Business Manager is a free tool that lets you officially register your WhatsApp number for business use. You don't need a company — a personal name is fine.
Meta Business Manager 是免費工具,讓你正式登記 WhatsApp 號碼用於業務。不需要公司名稱,個人名義即可。

前往 business.facebook.com,點擊「建立帳戶」
Use your personal Facebook account to log in (or create one free)
用個人 Facebook 帳號登入(或免費建立一個)
Enter your name and a business email address
輸入你的姓名和業務電郵
Business name: your own name or trading name works fine (e.g. "Kelly Nails" or "Kelly Chan")
業務名稱:用自己名字或別稱均可(例如「Kelly 美甲」或「陳小姐美甲」)
驗證你的 Meta 業務帳戶
Meta will ask you to verify your identity. This usually takes 1–2 business days and is done entirely online.
Meta 會要求驗證你的身份,通常需要 1–2 個工作天,全程網上完成。

You may receive a phone call or SMS from Meta with a code
Meta 可能致電或發送短訊驗證碼給你
Some accounts skip this step entirely. Try proceeding to Step 4 first — if Meta blocks you, come back here.
部分帳戶可跳過此步驟。先嘗試進行第 4 步,如被 Meta 阻止再回來完成驗證。
在 Business Manager 新增 WhatsApp
Now you link your new SIM number to your Business Manager account as a WhatsApp Business number.
