Still no luck with WhatsApp for Business API Integration

I have been struggling a lot with this WhatsApp for Business. I'm trying to send notifications for a charity project where if a donation is done, I would like to send the receipt via WhatsApp. As a sole developer I'm trying to do the business registration and I cannot express how bad my mind is after struggling with their website. META SUCKS BIGTIME. They have a very poor documentation and they have a very very very complicated process. They confuse terminologies and they are not user friendly. I don't understand how they survive to be one of the top companies.

The biggest irritation is that they don't even have a proper support system. They have a stupid product and the whole world is trying to use that stupid product and they make money from that stupid product. There are definitely better products out there but people are stupid enough to just use WhatsApp. We cannot change the world though. They cannot even tell me what's going wrong with my account. I already got the business registration completed and they asked me to test the process by creating a test WhatsApp account and now it looks like I cannot delete that test user account anymore and there is no option available to even try and understand what's going wrong.

The chat Bot says that I have to contact the support team to manually delete the account that was created. They confuse a lot with several account types. Developer Account, Business Account, WhatsApp account, etc and so many shit accounts and it is confusing. They have multiple places where the payment related information can be entered. I spent several hours already on this and still no luck. I thought things will get better after I get my business verified but apparently that is just a single step I guess. The biggest struggles are after that.

I have to complete this integration and I don't know when this nightmare will end. My next idea is to try and delete everything that I'm not using currently and give it a try.

    That sounds really frustrating, especially after spending so many hours on it. I hope you can finally get the integration working soon.

    Are you doing vibe coding on this or trying to sort it out the traditional way? Not that doing it by yourself is not good, but maybe when there is lack of official documentation, AI might have the information indexes from some where... just saying. :)
