What is the new DIY signup and onboarding process for MyOperator’s WhatsApp free trial, and how do I complete it?
Quick answer
In five self-service steps, any business can test MyOperator without talking to Sales:
- Signup
- OTP
- Business info
- Auto-profiling with a 3-day WhatsApp trial
- Dashboard access
Voice features stay locked until KYC is approved. No service number or IVR is provisioned until KYC is approved. Purchasing the WhatsApp-only Compact plan never requires KYC.

3. How automatic lead profiling works
GST turnover + domain rank determine the profile shown on the Sales lead card.
Profile | GST turnover | Domain rank | Internal group |
|---|---|---|---|
Micro | < ₹1.5 Cr OR no domain | — | NanoG |
Small | ₹1.5 – 25 Cr | 0 – 14 | SMBG |
Mid-size | ₹25 – 100 Cr | 15 – 25 | SMBG |
Enterprise | > ₹100 Cr | > 25 | EBG |
Domain rank values come from the internal ranking service.
