WhatsApp is one of the most used apps in Kenya, and it is not just for chatting. With the right approach, you can use it to grow a small business or create new income streams. Here are five simple ways to make money on WhatsApp.

1. Selling Products and Services
You can sell clothes, shoes, cosmetics, food, or even your own services directly through WhatsApp. Create clear product photos, write short descriptions, and share them in your status or groups. Use WhatsApp Business to make your shop look more professional.

2. WhatsApp TV Channels
Many Kenyans have created entertainment or news channels where they share trending videos, gossip, or motivational content. Once you build a large audience, you can earn through paid promotions, adverts, and sponsored posts.

3. Affiliate Marketing
You can promote products from online shops such as Jumia, Kilimall, or Amazon using your WhatsApp groups or status. When people buy through your shared link, you earn a commission. It works best if you share useful and honest product suggestions.

4. Promoting Events or Businesses
If you have many contacts, businesses can pay you to advertise their products, music, or events on your WhatsApp status or in groups. This is similar to social media influencing but happens within your personal network.

5. Paid Groups or Classes
You can create exclusive WhatsApp groups for training, tutoring, or sharing premium information such as business tips or academic help. Members pay a small fee to join and access the content.

With creativity, good communication, and consistency, WhatsApp can be turned into a simple but powerful tool for earning money right from your phone.
