The calculator estimates Meta WhatsApp Business Platform messaging charges for the categories shown, using the selected pricing market and monthly message volumes.
Meta uses different rates for different market and message-category combinations. The relevant pricing market is based on who the message is being delivered to.
Marketing templates cover promotional communication. Utility templates support non-promotional customer updates or requested information, while authentication templates are used for identity verification such as one-time passwords.
When a customer messages your business, a 24-hour customer service window opens. Meta does not charge for service messages during this window, and eligible utility messages sent in response to the customer can also be free.
Some markets can have a separate international authentication rate. Where it applies, the rate can differ from the standard authentication rate for that pricing market.
No. The calculator estimates Meta messaging charges only. Your MME Flow subscription is separate, and actual Meta charges can vary according to current rates, eligibility and applicable pricing rules.
