Add or remove staff WhatsApp numbers

Keep your team in the loop by adding up to four staff WhatsApp numbers to your Crate Terminal — everyone gets an instant alert the moment a payment lands.

🖥 Web 📱 Mobile

When a customer pays your Terminal, the alert doesn't have to land on one phone. Add your team's WhatsApp numbers and everyone on the floor knows the moment money arrives — no shouting across the shop to confirm a transfer went through.

Crate Terminal supports up to four staff WhatsApp numbers. Add and remove them any time as your team changes.

Before you start

You'll need your Terminal account active before staff alerts can be sent. If you haven't activated yet, request your Terminal first — then come back to add your team.

Tip: Use the staff member's personal WhatsApp number, not a shared line, so each person gets their own alert and you always know who was on shift when a payment came in.

Managing your slots

The screen shows your numbers as a list of slots — filled ones show the name and number, empty ones are ready for a new teammate. Once all four slots are full, the Add number button is disabled until you remove one. Removing a number stops its alerts straight away.
