# Pricing

This page describes pricing on the WhatsApp Business Platform through 360dialog

Each WhatsApp Business channel requires an active subscription to operate, and generates two categories of cost:

1. **360dialog Monthly Subscription License Fee** - Fixed costs for infrastructure, hosting, and platform access.
2. **WhatsApp Messaging and Call Fees** - Variable usage costs determined by Meta.

Optional add-ons, such as 360Pilot, may generate additional charges. These are invoiced separately from the subscription and messaging fees described below.

### Monthly Subscription License Fee

| Tier                 | Description                   | Monthly (EUR) | Monthly (USD) |
| -------------------- | ----------------------------- | ------------- | ------------- |
| Regular Channel Tier | Standard Subscription         | 49 EUR        | 59 USD        |
| Premium Channel Tier | Enhanced Features and Support | 99 EUR        | 119 USD       |
| Higher Throughput    | High-Volume Network Upgrade   | 249 EUR       | 299 USD       |

A subscription becomes billable from activation and stays active until manually cancelled. Subscriptions renew automatically on the first day of each month. Subscription billing supports EUR and USD only.&#x20;

See [**Subscriptions**](https://docs.360dialog.com/docs/hub/subscriptions) for more.

## WhatsApp Messaging and Call Fees

Usage-based costs are set by official Meta rate cards. 360dialog supports WhatsApp message pricing in EUR, USD, and INR.

### **Official Meta Rate Cards**

* [**Official Meta Messaging Rate Cards and Volume Tiers**](https://developers.facebook.com/documentation/business-messaging/whatsapp/pricing#rate-cards-effective-october-1-2026)
* [**Meta Volume-Based Pricing Rate Cards for Voice**](https://developers.facebook.com/documentation/business-messaging/whatsapp/calling/pricing#rates-effective-october-1-2026)
* [**Official Meta Rate Card Updates**](https://developers.facebook.com/documentation/business-messaging/whatsapp/pricing#updates-to-rate-cards)

### **Billable Messaging (Templates)**

Templates fall into three categories: Marketing, Utility, and Authentication. Rates are set by Meta based on category, market, and, for Utility and Authentication, monthly volume tier. Every category is billed unless delivered within a Free Entry Point Window.

Sending marketing content through the standard messages endpoint instead of the dedicated Marketing Messages API adds a 7% surcharge to Meta's standard rate.

### **Service Messages**

Service messages are non-template messages, such as text, images, or documents, sent by a business in response to a customer within an open customer service window. Also known as free-form messages, they are billed on a per-message basis, at rates aligned with Utility and Authentication rates for the same market, with one charge per message. Service messages are not eligible for volume-tier discounts. The only exception is a service message delivered within a Free Entry Point Window, which is free.

Messages sent through the Meta Business Agent AI platform are a separate category, billed by token consumption rather than a flat per-message rate.

### **WhatsApp Voice Call Pricing**

Voice call pricing is set by Meta and published in the official Volume-Based Pricing rate cards. Rates depend on call direction, recipient country code, and call duration in minutes.

See [**Free vs Billed Messaging**](https://docs.360dialog.com/docs/get-started/pricing/free-vs-billed-messaging) for more.
