The first three are the most common concerns; the rest are how-to and feature details.
No. Extraction happens entirely in your browser — the extension reads from the WhatsApp Web page, generates the file, and the file is downloaded directly to your computer. Our servers never receive any contact data. You can verify by checking the Network tab in DevTools.
Free users can export up to 10 contacts per run. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited exports plus all formats including VCard.
WA Contacts Extractor only reads content you can already see (group members, your chats), sends no messages, and calls no WhatsApp backend APIs. From WhatsApp's perspective, you're just using WhatsApp Web normally. Don't use the exported data for mass unsolicited messaging.
Open WhatsApp Web, launch WA Contacts Extractor, choose Groups, select the groups you want, and start the export. When the export finishes, download the contacts as CSV, Excel, JSON, or VCard depending on your plan.
Yes. WA Contacts Extractor supports Excel export along with CSV, JSON, and VCard. Excel is useful when you want to sort, filter, clean, or share contact lists with a team.
You can export contacts from WhatsApp groups, chat contacts, WhatsApp Business labels, and country-based contact lists. Available data depends on what your WhatsApp Web account can access.
Yes. If your WhatsApp Business account has labels available in WhatsApp Web, WA Contacts Extractor can help export contacts from selected labels while preserving label context.
WA Contacts Extractor is built for Chromium browsers, including Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, and works with WhatsApp Web at web.whatsapp.com.
