How Dedicated Broadcast Number works?
You can use back your existing WhatsApp Business number to blast your marketing campaign without worrying about having blocked by WhatsApp. However, we need to submit an application to Facebook to move your existing number from WhatsApp Business to WhatsApp Business API. Once the number has successfully moved over to WhatsApp Business API, you can blast your promotional message to your target audience with a 100% delivery rate (as long as WhatsApp approved your content before you blast, then it will be ok).
