Export WhatsApp group member lists to CSV, Excel, or vCard. GroupSync — Export WhatsApp Group Contacts to CSV, Excel & vCard in One Click Stop copying phone numbers one by one. GroupSync turns any WhatsApp Web group member list into a clean, ready-to-use contact file in seconds — names and phone numbers, properly formatted, downloaded straight to your computer. Scanning is completely free. You only pay when you actually download a file. ════════════════════════ WHY GROUPSYNC EXISTS If you run a business, a community, a coaching class, a housing society, an alumni network, or any WhatsApp group with more than twenty people, you have almost certainly faced this problem: You need those contacts outside WhatsApp — in a spreadsheet, in your CRM, in your phone's address book, in a mailing tool — and WhatsApp gives you no way to get them there. Your only option is to open the member list, tap each person, note the number, and repeat. For a 250-member group that is roughly two hours of manual work, and you will still make mistakes. GroupSync does the entire job in under thirty seconds. Open the group in WhatsApp Web, click the extension, and every member's name and phone number is extracted, counted, and previewed instantly. Then choose your format — CSV, Excel, or vCard — and download. ════════════════════════ WHAT GROUPSYNC DOES ✔ Extracts every member of the currently open WhatsApp group ✔ Captures saved contact names, push names, and phone numbers ✔ Resolves WhatsApp's internal LID identifiers back to real phone numbers ✔ Shows a live count of exactly how many contacts were found ✔ Gives you an instant on-screen preview before you pay anything ✔ Exports to CSV, Excel .xlsx, and vCard .vcf ✔ Names the export file after the group automatically ✔ Runs entirely inside your own browser — nothing is uploaded anywhere ✔ Requires no signup, no account, no login, no email, no OTP ✔ Works on Windows, macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS ════════════════════════ HOW IT WORKS — THREE STEPS STEP 1 — OPEN YOUR GROUP Go to web.whatsapp.com and log in the normal way by scanning the QR code with your phone. Open the group you want to export. If the group is large, click the group name at the top and open the participants list so WhatsApp loads the full roster into the page. STEP 2 — CLICK EXTRACT Click the GroupSync icon in your Chrome toolbar and press "Extract Group Members". Within a few seconds you will see the total contact count and a preview table showing the first ten names and numbers, so you can confirm you scanned the right group before spending anything. STEP 3 — CHOOSE A FORMAT AND DOWNLOAD Pick CSV, Excel, or vCard. Complete the ₹50 payment through Razorpay — India's most widely used and fully PCI-DSS compliant gateway, supporting UPI, all major debit and credit cards, net banking, and wallets. The moment payment succeeds, your file downloads automatically. No waiting, no email delivery, no follow-up. ════════════════════════ THE THREE EXPORT FORMATS — AND WHEN TO USE EACH ▸ CSV (.csv) — use when importing into other software The universal format. Opens in Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc, Apple Numbers, and virtually every CRM, email platform, SMS gateway, and database import tool ever built. Exported with a UTF-8 byte-order mark so Indian language names, accented characters, and emoji display correctly instead of turning into garbled symbols — a detail most exporters get wrong. ▸ Excel (.xlsx) — use when a human will work with the list directly A genuine Excel workbook with a proper header row (Name, Phone) and a named "Contacts" sheet. No import wizard, no delimiter prompts, no "text to columns" step. Double-click and it opens perfectly formatted, ready to sort, filter, deduplicate, or build a pivot table. ▸ vCard (.vcf) — use when you want contacts in your actual phone The standard contact-card format used by every phone and address book on earth. Email the file to yourself, open it on your phone, and every contact is added in a single tap. Compatible with Android Contacts, iOS Contacts, Google Contacts, Microsoft Outlook, and any CardDAV service. ════════════════════════ WHO USES GROUPSYNC SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS AND RESELLERS You have built customer groups over years — sale announcements, new stock, festival offers. Consolidate them into one master database, remove duplicates, and finally know how many unique customers you have. REAL ESTATE AGENTS AND BROKERS Buyer enquiry groups, builder channel-partner groups, project launch groups. Export leads into your CRM the same day the group fills up, while the interest is still warm. EDUCATORS, COACHING CENTRES AND SCHOOLS Batch groups, parent groups, admission enquiry groups. Export into your attendance sheet, fee-tracking system, or SMS tool without asking three hundred parents to fill a form again. EVENT ORGANISERS AND WEDDING PLANNERS Guest, vendor, and volunteer coordination groups become a proper contact sheet for RSVPs, logistics rosters, and reminder calls. COMMUNITY, RWA AND HOUSING SOCIETY ADMINS Maintain an accurate resident directory and keep an offline emergency contact list that does not depend on anyone's phone. NGOS AND SOCIAL CAMPAIGNS Volunteer, donor, and beneficiary groups become organised, searchable records instead of endless chat history. RECRUITERS, ALUMNI ASSOCIATIONS AND FREELANCERS Job-seeker groups become a candidate pipeline, batch groups a current alumni directory, client groups a clean record of everyone you have worked with. ════════════════════════ PRIVACY AND SECURITY — READ THIS PART This matters more than any feature, so here is exactly how GroupSync handles your data. EVERYTHING RUNS LOCALLY GroupSync reads the WhatsApp Web page already open in your own browser, on your own computer, in your own logged-in session. All extraction, formatting, and file generation happens inside Chrome on your machine, and the file is saved straight to your Downloads folder. NO CONTACT DATA IS EVER UPLOADED Your extracted names and phone numbers are never transmitted to us, never stored on any server, never sold, never shared, never used for advertising, and never used to train anything. We literally never see them — there is no server-side component that could receive them even if we wanted it to. NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING No signup, no login, no email collection, no phone verification, no analytics on your contacts, no advertising identifiers, and no third-party trackers. NO WHATSAPP CREDENTIALS ARE TOUCHED GroupSync never asks for, sees, stores, or transmits your WhatsApp password, phone number, session keys, QR code, or authentication tokens. You authenticate with WhatsApp exactly as you always do, and GroupSync simply reads the page that results. NO MESSAGES ARE READ GroupSync extracts participant names and phone numbers from the group member list. It does not read, collect, store, or export your chat messages, media, voice notes, documents, status updates, or call history. NOTHING IS SENT ON YOUR BEHALF GroupSync is strictly read-and-export. It cannot and does not send messages, create groups, add or remove members, broadcast, or auto-reply. It has no bulk-messaging capability of any kind. MINIMAL PERMISSIONS, EXPLAINED • activeTab and scripting — to read the member list from the WhatsApp Web tab you are actively using • storage — to hold your extracted list locally between clicking Export and completing payment, so your download is not lost • tabs — to open the payment page and return you to your download • Host access to web.whatsapp.com — the only place group data exists • Host access to groupsync.pinecoder.in — our own payment confirmation page That is the complete list. Nothing broader is requested. PAYMENTS ARE HANDLED BY RAZORPAY Card numbers, UPI PINs, CVVs, and bank credentials are entered on Razorpay's own PCI-DSS Level 1 certified infrastructure. GroupSync never sees or stores any payment credential. ════════════════════════ PRICING — HONEST AND SIMPLE SCANNING IS FREE, FOREVER Extract any group, see the exact contact count, and preview the results as many times as you like without paying a rupee. You always know precisely what you are getting before you decide. EXPORTING COSTS ₹50 PER DOWNLOAD One flat price. No monthly subscription. No free trial that silently converts into a charge. No credit packs that expire. No per-contact pricing that punishes you for having a large group. No upsells, no premium tier, no locked features. A group with 12 members costs ₹50. A group with 1,200 members costs ₹50. You pay only when you download — compare that to two hours of manual copying, or to subscription tools charging ₹500 to ₹2,000 every month for the same job. ════════════════════════ REQUIREMENTS • Google Chrome, or any Chromium-based browser (Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, Arc) • An active WhatsApp account, logged in at web.whatsapp.com • Membership of the group you want to export • An internet connection for the payment step Works on Windows, macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS, with WhatsApp Business as well as personal accounts. ════════════════════════ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q: Do I need to be a group admin? A: No. If you can see the participant list as an ordinary member, GroupSync can export it. Some groups are configured by their admins to hide the member list from non-admins — in those cases neither you nor GroupSync can see the participants, because WhatsApp never sends that data to your browser. Q: How many contacts can it handle? A: There is no built-in limit — from a handful of people to the full WhatsApp maximum. Very large groups take a few extra seconds because WhatsApp loads participants progressively; scroll the member list to the bottom once before extracting so the entire roster is loaded into the page. Q: Will the exported numbers work for calling and messaging? A: Yes. Numbers are exported in full international format with country code, which is what phones, CRMs, and messaging platforms expect. Q: What if someone has no saved name? A: You will get their WhatsApp push name, or their phone number if no name is available. Nothing is silently dropped. Q: Can I export more than one group? A: Yes — switch to the next group in WhatsApp Web, extract again, and download again. Each export is a separate ₹50 download. Merging multiple exports in Excel or Google Sheets is straightforward. Q: Will my WhatsApp account get banned? A: GroupSync only reads data WhatsApp has already delivered to your own browser and displayed on your own screen. It does not send messages, automate messaging, or add members, and generates no unusual traffic to WhatsApp's servers. That said, use exported contacts responsibly — the fastest route to any account restriction is unsolicited bulk messaging, which GroupSync cannot do and does not encourage. Q: Is this affiliated with WhatsApp or Meta? A: No. GroupSync is an independent third-party tool. WhatsApp is a trademark of Meta Platforms, Inc. Q: What if a payment fails mid-transaction? A: Your extracted list stays saved locally in the extension, so nothing is lost. If a payment goes through and your file does not download, contact us and you will be refunded — we would rather return ₹50 than leave anyone unhappy. ════════════════════════ TROUBLESHOOTING "No contacts found" — Open the group, click the group name at the top to open the participants panel, scroll to the very bottom so WhatsApp loads every member, then extract again. "Cannot connect to WhatsApp Web" — Refresh web.whatsapp.com with F5, wait for chats to finish loading, then try again. WhatsApp Web must be fully initialised before extraction begins. Extraction seems slow — Very large groups take longer because WhatsApp resolves internal identifiers to real phone numbers one at a time. Let it run. Names look wrong in Excel — Use the Excel (.xlsx) export instead of CSV; it never has encoding issues. Extension icon does nothing — Confirm the active tab is web.whatsapp.com. GroupSync intentionally does nothing on other websites. ════════════════════════ RESPONSIBLE USE — PLEASE READ GroupSync is a productivity tool for people who need legitimate access to contact information from groups they are genuinely part of. How you use exported data is your responsibility, and it is governed by real law. Please: • Only export groups you are legitimately a member of • Respect the privacy of everyone whose details you export • Never send unsolicited bulk marketing messages, and obtain consent before adding anyone to marketing lists • Comply with your local data protection laws — India's DPDP Act, the GDPR in Europe, TCPA in the United States, and any others that apply to you • Honour opt-out requests immediately and permanently • Store exported files securely and delete them when no longer needed Do not use GroupSync for spam, harassment, scams, unauthorised data collection, or reselling personal data. ════════════════════════ WHAT GROUPSYNC IS NOT • Not a bulk-messaging or WhatsApp marketing tool. It cannot send a single message. • Not an auto-responder, chatbot, or scheduler. • Not a group-joining, member-adding, or group-creating tool. • Not a chat backup or message archiver. • Not a way to see contacts of people you do not share a group with. • Not affiliated with WhatsApp or Meta. It does exactly one job — turning a group member list into a usable contact file — and does it properly. ════════════════════════ WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE GROUPSYNC FAST — Seconds instead of hours. Extraction, preview, and download in under a minute. ACCURATE — Reads WhatsApp Web's own internal data rather than scraping rendered text, and correctly resolves WhatsApp's newer LID identifiers back to real phone numbers, which naive scrapers get wrong. PRIVATE — Local processing, zero uploads, no account, no tracking, minimal permissions. TRANSPARENT — Free scanning means you see the exact result before paying. FAIRLY PRICED — ₹50 per download, flat. No subscription trap. SIMPLE — One screen, one button, three formats. No ads, no popups, no "upgrade to pro" nagging. ════════════════════════ VERSION 3.0 The current release adds a rebuilt extraction engine with substantially higher reliability on large groups, full LID-to-phone-number resolution for accounts on WhatsApp's newer identifier system, automatic group-name-based file naming, a redesigned single-screen interface, UTF-8 encoding fixes for Indian language and emoji names, native .xlsx export, and a faster payment flow. ════════════════════════ SUPPORT Website: groupsync.pinecoder.in Questions, bug reports, refund requests, and feature suggestions are all welcome.
