Frequently Asked Questions about WhatsApp API Pricing

Meta groups WhatsApp messages into four categories, each priced differently: Marketing (promotions, offers, product launches, the highest rate), Utility (order confirmations, shipping updates, appointment reminders), Authentication (OTPs, verification codes) and Service (replies inside the 24-hour customer service window, which are free). Since July 2025 Meta bills marketing, utility and authentication messages per message delivered; the 24-hour window still determines when free-form replies are allowed.
