How to Promote a Chatbot with Its Username
Each page has a unique username at the forefront to help users find and contact businesses on both Facebook and Messenger. As the each username is unique, it helps users to identify your business, even if it has a relatively common name. The username can be set and edited.
Pages that already have a vanity URL (unique URLs such as facebook.com/JaspersMarket) already have a username, because a page’s username (@JaspersMarket) and vanity URL are the same. Users can see a username directly on your page, underneath your page title with an @ symbol before it.
