Prices, Plans and Payments

Understand costs associated with WhatsApp for Business

Each WhatsApp for Business channel generates two types of costs:

  1. Monthly License Fee

  2. WhatsApp Messaging Fees

All costs are transparent and billed through the 360dialog Hub.

Additional fees may apply for optional add-ons (e.g., 360Pilot). These items are invoiced separately from your regular licence and usage charges.

Monthly License Fee

Licence fees cover hosting, messaging throughput, and 24/7 customer support for one month.

Billing starts as soon as the integration onboarding is completed and renews automatically on the 1st of each month.

WhatsApp Messaging Fees

Meta Rate Cards contain the official price-per-message for WhatsApp Business.
