Introduction
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
Conversation Fees (valid as of 1st Feb 2022)
The charges will be calculated based on the end-users phone number.
