Each business phone number gets its first 1,000 a month free. ### **Utility replies are billed too** Utility messages sent inside an open customer service window were free from July 2025; they are billed again from October 1, 2026. ### **Click-to-WhatsApp ads open a free window** Answer someone who came from a click-to-WhatsApp ad within the service window and Meta opens a free entry point window of up to 7 days: no charge for marketing, utility, authentication or service messages. ### **Volume tiers on utility and authentication** The more you send to a market in a month, the lower the rate. Each tier's rate applies only to the messages inside it, counted across your business portfolio and reset monthly. ### **Rates change only four days a year** Meta updates pricing only on January 1, April 1, July 1 or October 1, with notice ahead. Next possible change: January 1, 2027. ### **16 official currencies** Meta publishes the card in local currencies too, such as MXN, BRL, CLP and INR. Those rates are Meta's own, not exchange-rate conversions. ### **Meta Business Agent is priced apart** Meta's own AI agent costs $2.00 per million tokens, about 4 to 5 US cents a message by Meta's estimate. Tiers and free windows don't apply to it. ### **Provider fees come on top** Everything here is Meta's charge. A WhatsApp provider may add its own per-message markup or a monthly plan.**Country lookup**## Which market is my country in? Meta bills by the recipient's country calling code, not by where your business is.
