Pricing and Meta news

From 1 October 2026, WhatsApp replies are free only up to 1,000 a month per number, and site-visit reminders inside an open chat are now charged. We work out three real monthly bills for Indian brokers at Meta’s rates, plus 18% GST.

Meta One gives Indian businesses a verified badge and an AI helper from ₹639 a month, while platforms like AiSensy, Interakt and WATI run broadcasts, team inboxes and automations on the WhatsApp Business API. We compare the prices, Meta’s rates from 1 October 2026 and the real monthly cost for three Indian businesses.
