How to send messages from Telegram to WhatsApp automatically

Want messages you post in Telegram to show up in WhatsApp on their own — no copy-paste, no forwarding by hand? Telegram and WhatsApp don't talk to each other natively, so you need a bridge in between. Here's how it works and the simplest way to set it up (no code, no QR).

Can Telegram send messages to WhatsApp on its own?

Not by default — they're separate apps with no built-in link. To get a message from Telegram into WhatsApp automatically you need something sitting between them that listens to one side and reposts to the other. That's what a bridge does, in both directions.

The simplest way: a managed bridge (step by step)

With wa2tg.app there's nothing to install and no code. It takes about three minutes:

  1. 1
    Start on the site

    Tap Start free and name your Telegram group — no account, no credit card, no QR scan.

  2. 2
    Add our number to your WhatsApp group

    In WhatsApp, add the bridge number shown on the page to the group you want to connect (or a new one).

  3. 3
    Paste the code

    Paste the short code into that WhatsApp group. Within seconds it replies “Connected!” and the groups are linked.

  4. 4
    Post in Telegram → it lands in WhatsApp

    From now on, whatever you post in the Telegram group is mirrored to WhatsApp automatically — and WhatsApp replies come back to Telegram. Text, photos, video and voice.

Does it also work the other way (WhatsApp to Telegram)?

Yes — the bridge is two-way by default, so it also sends WhatsApp messages to Telegram at the same time. You don't set up two separate flows; one bridge mirrors both directions.

What about the DIY options?

You can self-host an open-source bridge on a server, wire it up in Zapier/Make (needs the WhatsApp Business API and a separate flow per direction), or build on a developer API like Twilio, WHAPI, or Wassenger. All of those work but need setup, maintenance, or code. A managed bridge skips all of it — see why not Zapier and managed vs self-hosting.

Is my WhatsApp number safe?

You're just added to a normal WhatsApp group — the bridge runs on our own service number, not yours, so your WhatsApp never runs an unofficial client. More on that: is it safe to bridge WhatsApp and Telegram?

FAQ

How do I send messages from Telegram to WhatsApp automatically?

Use a two-way bridge that sits between the apps. With a managed bridge like wa2tg.app you name your Telegram group on the site, add our number to your WhatsApp group, paste a short code, and it mirrors messages both ways — no code, no QR.

Can Telegram forward to WhatsApp without any app or code?

Yes, with a managed bridge. You do not install anything or write code — you add our number to your WhatsApp group and paste a short code; the site handles the rest.

Does it send messages both ways?

Yes. One bridge mirrors both directions at once — Telegram to WhatsApp and WhatsApp to Telegram — including photos, video, and voice notes.

Is my WhatsApp number at risk?

No. You are simply added to a normal WhatsApp group. The bridge runs on our service number, not yours, so your account never runs a third-party client.
