Prices exclude 18% GST. The debited column adds GST and the payment gateway fee, so it is what actually leaves your account.

A plan doesn’t include messages

Messages are charged per message, by category, as you send them from a prepaid balance rather than bundled into a number you’d have to guess at. Add money when you need it; it stays valid for 12 months.

Minimum top-up ₹1,000. You can add an opening balance during checkout, so you’re ready to send the moment you finish.

Frequently asked questions

How does pricing work?
Plans start at ₹1,999/month and include their AI replies outright — 10,000 on Starter, 30,000 on Basic, 75,000 on Pro. WhatsApp messages are billed from a prepaid wallet as you send them, at ₹0.144 for utility and authentication and ₹1.08 for marketing. Voice is priced separately from ₹8/minute. All prices exclude 18% GST, and there is no long-term lock-in.
Are voice minutes included in my plan?
No — voice is unbundled and priced on its own, so you never pay for minutes you do not use. It is ₹8/minute pay-as-you-go, or cheaper in a prepaid pack: ₹775 for 100 minutes, ₹1,950 for 300, or ₹5,500 for 1,000. Pack minutes stay valid for 12 months.
Do I need a wallet balance as well as a plan?
Yes, if you want to send WhatsApp messages. The plan covers AI replies, seats, agents and your number; messages are billed per send from a prepaid wallet. The minimum top-up is ₹1,000, and you can add an opening balance during checkout so you are ready to send immediately.
Can I pay annually?
Yes — annual billing is 20% cheaper than paying monthly, so Starter is ₹19,190, Basic ₹47,990 and Pro ₹95,990 for the year.
How are WhatsApp messages charged?
Per message, by category (marketing, utility, authentication), from your prepaid wallet at the rates on this page. Meta also requires a payment method on your WhatsApp Business Account.
Can I get enterprise pricing?
Yes. Enterprise is quoted per deal rather than published, and is billed by monthly invoice rather than an automatic card debit — so you approve every cycle. Deals are sized in message credits per category, which fall through to your wallet at standard rates if you exceed them, so nothing stops mid-campaign. Contact sales for volume pricing, dedicated numbers and onboarding.
What happens if I release a phone number early?
Phone numbers are billed as a monthly rental on a 30-day cycle, charged in advance. Releasing a number before the cycle ends does not earn a refund or credit for the remaining days. If you no longer want a number, use “Cancel renewal” to keep it working until the end of the period you already paid for — it is then released automatically with no further charge.
