What's not included

Meta charges for WhatsApp messages on its own rate card +5%. Those charges sit outside the $39 platform fee. They are not folded into a “from $0” price.

On Buy WABA, message fees are billed separately according to WhatsApp rates +5%. On Bring your own WABA, 1MSG does not charge your messages — you pay those fees directly to Meta.

How billing works

  1. Platform fee vs Meta fees. $39 is the 1MSG platform fee. WhatsApp message charges are separate and follow Meta’s rates +5%.

  2. Per channel. A channel is one phone number connected to the WhatsApp Business API. The fee is $39 per channel per month.

  3. When usage applies. Buy WABA is $39 plus message usage, billed according to WhatsApp rates +5%. On Bring your own WABA, usage is paid to Meta, not to 1MSG.

FAQ

No. There is no free production WhatsApp Business API. Buy WABA includes a free test number. Bring your own WABA includes a 30-day free trial of the platform fee. Meta still charges for WhatsApp messages on its own rates.
