How Does WhatsApp Make Money? This mini-movie tells the story of WhatsApp, and the insane journey of Brian Acton & Jan Koum. Imagine this: you go for a job at Facebook and get rejected. A few years later, Facebook buy your company for $19 billion dollars. Well, for WhatsApp founders Brian and Jan, that’s exactly what happened. Unfortunately, for WhatsApp's users, the story perhaps doesn’t have quite such a happy ending… The story of how WhatsApp was built and scaled is both fascinating and worrying.
I hope you enjoy this WhatsApp story - taking you right from the creation of WhatsApp, through to the WhatsApp acquisition by Facebook, and even the potential future of WhatsApp! But most importantly, we'll be asking: how does WhatsApp REALLY make money?
