Conversation Based Pricing
EasySocial Pricing
EasySocial follows a flat pricing structure for all conversations. A conversation is measured as a fixed 24-hour duration session. A same flat fee is charged for for both User Initiated Conversations and Business Initiated Conversations unlike the WhatsApp Cloud API pricing. Free Tier Conversations Upto first 1,000 conversations each month are free for each Business Account based on the Subscribed Engage Plan.
WhatsApp Cloud API Pricing
Businesses using the WhatsApp Cloud API are charged per conversation, which includes all messages delivered in a 24 hour session.
WhatsApp Cloud API conversations fall into two categories that are priced differently: User-initiated Conversation: A conversation that initiates in response to a user message. Whenever a business replies to a user within the 24 hour customer service window, that message will be associated with a user-initiated conversation. Businesses can send free-form messages within this 24 hour customer service window.
Business-initiated Conversation: A conversation that initiates from a business sending a user a message outside the 24 hour customer service window. Messages that initiate a business-initiated conversation will require a message template. All conversations are measured in fixed 24-hour sessions. A conversation starts when the first business message in a conversation is delivered, either initiated by the business or in reply to a user message. Businesses and users can exchange any number of messages, including template messages, within a 24 hour conversation session without incurring additional charges. Each 24 hour conversation session results in a single charge.
Charges for conversations are based on the user’s country code. A user here is defined as the customer that your business is communicating with. Rates for business-initiated and user-initiated conversations vary by country or region.
Free Tier Conversations
The first 1,000 conversations each month are free. This way your business can build experiences your customers will love before having to pay. Each WhatsApp Business account (WABA) will receive 1,000 free conversations per month. These conversations can be either user or business-initiated. Even if a WABA has multiple numbers attached, the free tier threshold is still 1000, as the free tier is provided at the WABA level. The free tier is refreshed monthly, based on the timezone associated with the WABA.
Free Entry Points Conversations
Conversations are not charged when users message businesses using call-to-actions buttons on Ads that Click to WhatsApp or a Facebook Page call-to-action buttons. Free entry point conversations can only be user-initiated. The first conversation that starts from the entry point is free of charge, then subsequent conversations with the user are charged. Standard pricing applies for Ads that Click to WhatsApp. The conversation that initiates from the ad is free, but not the ad itself.
