I'll keep this post short and to the point. Here's the Server Side code for a Web API Controller:

[ResponseType(typeof(Customer))]
public async Task<IHttpActionResult> PostCustomer(IEnumerable<Customer> customers)
{
      if (!ModelState.IsValid)
      {
            return BadRequest(ModelState);
      }
      db.Customers.AddRange(customers);
      await db.SaveChangesAsync();
      return StatusCode(HttpStatusCode.Created);
}

//And here's how to call this:

public async Task<string> PostMultipleCustomers()
{
  var customers = new List<Customer>
  {
    new Customer { Name = "John Doe" }, 
    new Customer { Name = "Jane Doe" }
  };
  using (var client = new HttpClient())
  {
    HttpResponseMessage response = await client.PostAsJsonAsync("http://<Url>/api/Customers", customers);
    if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
    {
      var result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
      return result;
    }
  return response.StatusCode.ToString();
  }
 }
