What are the costs of sending Business Initiated and User Initiated Conversations?
Updated

Background
As of 1st February 2022, WhatsApp will switch from a notification message-based pricing model to a conversation-based pricing model.
Instead of being charged for notifications sent, businesses will be charged per conversation, which includes all messages delivered within a 24-hour period. Incoming messages from end-users will be free, the charge will only apply when a business replies.
Conversations fall into two categories which are priced differently:
- Business Initiated Conversations - such as post purchase notifications
- User Initiated Conversations - such as customer care or general support inquiries
As an existing customer, what will be the impact for me?
- From 1st February 2022, we will no longer be offering (15,000/ 50,000) free reply messages to customers per month
- The price of $0.005/msg after (15,000/ 50,000) limit will no longer apply - refer to our new rates table below
This will also be updated on our pricing page from Feb 1st 2022.
Conversation Fees (valid as of 1st Feb 2022)
The charges will be calculated based on the end-users phone number.
