Meta changed the rules on 1 October 2026. Here is what changed for you.
Since 1 October 2026, Meta charges for every reply your system sends. Before, replies were free.
A customer message opens a 24-hour window. A reply inside the window is a service message. After 24 hours, you send only a template Meta approved.
Each month, your first 1,000 service messages are free. From message 1,001, each costs USD 0.018 (about RM 0.07).
A broadcast goes out as a marketing template, and Meta approves each template first. Send offers only to customers who said yes. Each person costs USD 0.11 (about RM 0.45).

You pay two things: your plan, and wallet top-ups for WhatsApp messages and AI. Move the sliders to work out your wallet top-up.

Broadcasts are the biggest bill. 1,000 people cost USD 110 (about RM 450), every single time.

No, not since 1 October 2026. Messages your customers send you are free, and so are your first 1,000 replies each month. After those, each reply costs USD 0.018 (about RM 0.07) on our system.
A customer message opens a 24-hour window. Inside the window you reply with anything. After the window closes, you send only templates Meta approved. Every new customer message restarts the 24 hours.
On our system, each person who gets a marketing template costs USD 0.11 (about RM 0.45). A broadcast to 1,000 people costs USD 110 (about RM 450). Your plan is separate. The WhatsApp Business app sells its own paid business broadcasts, priced per delivered message.
Your system has a wallet. Top up the wallet to pay for AI usage and WhatsApp messages. Your monthly plan is billed separately.
Coex (short for coexistence) runs the WhatsApp Business app and the WhatsApp API on the same number. You keep replying from your phone while an AI agent and your team reply through the API. Up to 6 months of chat history moves over.
We register your WhatsApp API or Coex, train your AI agent on your business and follow Meta's rules for you.
Most clients go live within 24 hours.
