The WhatsApp Business API helps businesses communicate with customers in a professional way. Unlike the regular WhatsApp we use, WhatsApp offers two types of accounts for businesses: the WhatsApp Business App and the WhatsApp Business API.
The WhatsApp Business App is free and works well for small businesses. It includes features like quick replies and business profiles but is limited to just one device.
The WhatsApp Business API, however, is made for bigger businesses that need to reach more customers. It can connect to customer service tools and allows multiple people to reply to messages. It has a conversation-based pricing system, where the cost depends on the country. This makes it important for businesses to pick a right WhatsApp API pricing plan that fits their needs and budget.

There are two types of conversation charges: user-initiated and business-initiated.
A user-initiated conversation begins when a customer first messages a business, such as by asking a question or responding to an ad. If the business responds within a 24-hour window, it is free of cost, regardless of how many messages are exchanged.
A business-initiated conversation occurs when a business first contacts a customer using Template Messages, typically for updates, reminders, or follow-ups, and usually incurs charges as it’s initiated by the business.
Initiated for sending promotional messages to your customers, this category includes anything from sales promotions to updates about new product launches.
Marketing conversation charges vary by plan:These are used for user authentication, such as sending one-time passwords (OTPs) to verify user identity.
Authentication conversation charges vary by plan:Focused on transactional messages, such as order confirmations, payment updates, and shipping notifications.
Utility conversation charges vary by plan:Includes customer support and other service-related communications initiated by the user or business to resolve an issue. Service conversations are now completely free of cost.

Meta has recently introduced changes to its messaging pricing structure, lowering the costs for Utility and Authentication messages—such as reminders and verifications—while increasing the costs for Marketing messages.
This strategic move is designed to promote more targeted and thoughtful marketing efforts. By raising the price of Marketing messages, Meta encourages businesses to deliver more relevant and high-value communications, ultimately driving better returns on investment (ROI).
The aim is clear: reduce the flood of mass, untargeted messages that can harm user experience and focus on improving engagement through high-quality content. In line with Meta’s initiatives like template pacing and frequency capping, this pricing shift supports a more interactive and tailored approach to business messaging.
WhatsApp charges per 24-hour conversation window, meaning you only pay for one conversation per customer within a 24-hour window. This window starts when the first message is delivered, allowing unlimited messaging within that period. The 24-hour rule ensures predictable pricing while maintaining open communication lines between businesses and customers.
For businesses operating in India, the WhatsApp API offers competitive rates. Our pricing in India is designed to help local businesses connect with their audience through a familiar and trusted platform.
