💡 What Is WhatsApp API Pricing?
WhatsApp API pricing is based on:
👉 Conversation-based pricing (not per message exactly)
Pricing is officially set by Meta Platforms.
📊 WhatsApp API Pricing in India (2026)
🟢 Approx Pricing (India)

🔍 Important: It’s Not Per Message
WhatsApp charges per conversation window (24 hours):

- Charged as one conversation
💰 Total Cost = 2 Parts
