Estimate based on Meta's official USD list rates effective October 1, 2026 ( Meta rate card). Utility and authentication prices get cheaper at higher monthly volume, so large senders may pay less. Service replies are free up to 1,000 per WhatsApp number each month. Messages sent in a free-entry-point window (from click-to-WhatsApp ads) are free. Meta bills you directly and may change rates. This does not include your 12BOT plan, taxes or card fees.

How WhatsApp Business API Pricing Works
WhatsApp Business API pricing is per message. You pay Meta only when a template message is delivered. The rate depends on two things: the country code of the customer and the category of the template. Marketing templates such as offers and announcements are the most expensive. Utility templates such as order confirmations and delivery updates cost less, and authentication templates for OTP codes are priced separately.
When a customer messages you first, you can reply with free-form service messages for 24 hours at no charge. Messages sent from a click-to-WhatsApp ad or a Facebook Page call-to-action also open a free window. Using these free windows well is the easiest way to lower your WhatsApp bill.
To estimate your cost, choose the country, pick the message type, enter how many messages you plan to send each month and read the total. Compare it with other countries to see where your campaign is cheapest. Meta bills these charges to you directly, and 12BOT gives you the official WhatsApp Business API, automation, campaigns and a shared inbox on top.
