FAQ
WhatsApp pricing questions, answered
Meta charges per delivered template message — you are billed when a message is delivered, not sent. The rate depends on the message category (marketing, utility, authentication, or service) and the recipient country's rate card. Meta cost = delivered messages × category rate for each category.
