Each person verifies their own number under **Settings → Integrations → WhatsApp**, so no admin is needed. WhatsApp is Live in LeadLex. On the card, LeadLex lists what you can do there: scan business cards, send voice notes, and get task reminders and deal alerts.

## Connect your number

1. Open **Settings → Integrations** and select **WhatsApp**.
2. Under **Phone Verification**, enter your number with the country code and choose **Send Verification Code**.
3. Type the 6-digit code from WhatsApp and choose **Verify**.
4. Choose your notifications.

If the code does not come, choose **Resend**. To start over with another number, choose **Use a different number**. When it works you see "WhatsApp connected!"

## Choose what arrives on WhatsApp

Under **Notifications via WhatsApp** you can switch on **Morning briefing**, **Task reminders**, **Deal alerts** and **Approval requests**.

## The 24 hour window

In **Settings → Notifications**, the WhatsApp channel shows **Active (24h window open)** or **24h window expired, falls back to email**. The window opens each time you send Lexi a WhatsApp message and closes 24 hours later. When it has expired, LeadLex sends that notification by email instead. Send Lexi any message to reopen it.

## What costs credits

Asking Lexi questions, scanning a business card and voice notes use AI credits. See [Credits: what costs what](/help/account/credits-what-costs-what).

## What happens next

Send Lexi a photo of a business card or a quick question to try it.
