Can these virtual numbers be used for WhatsApp for Business?

We have extensively tested this and yes, you can.

When you set up the account it will first try to send a text message.
This will fail after a little while (usually around 2 minutes).

On that verification screen, when you scroll down, you will then see the 'Call Me' to verify option.
Make sure that you set up the number to come to a handset direct (WhatsApp verification can not handle IVR, Call Queue, or the likes) and you will receive a call where a computer voice will give you the verification number you need.

That's all.
