01The short answer

Messages × Meta's marketing rate for the country

A bulk WhatsApp campaign on the official API is a marketing template sent to opted-in contacts. Meta charges for each delivered message, so the cost is simply the number delivered times the marketing rate of the country you send to. Undelivered messages aren't charged by Meta.

Rates vary a lot by country: on Meta's card effective 1 October 2026, a marketing message costs $0.0109 in Turkey and $0.1597 in Netherlands. Order and delivery updates are utility messages, which cost much less.

What you pay on top depends on your provider. Mywa charges $14.99/month flat and lets Meta bill messages directly at its official rate, so 10,000 messages cost what Meta charges, and nothing more.

04Pay less

How to spend less on bulk WhatsApp campaigns

The rate is Meta's; how many messages you pay for is yours:

  • 1

    Send to people likely to care. A smaller, engaged list costs less and keeps your number's quality rating healthy.

  • 2

    Send order, shipping and payment updates as utility templates, not marketing. They cost a fraction of the price.

  • 3

    Run click-to-WhatsApp ads. once you reply, the chat is free for up to 7 days, whatever you send.

  • 4

    Turn replies into conversations. answers within 24 hours are free for the first 1,000 per number a month.

  • 5

    Clean your list first. invalid numbers and people who never opted in waste money and invite blocks.

  • 6

    Avoid per-message provider fees. At campaign volume they add more than most software subscriptions.

05FAQ

Frequently asked questions

At Meta's marketing rates effective 1 October 2026: $250.00 to US or Canadian numbers, $635.00 to UK numbers, $1,365.00 to German numbers and ₹8,631 to Indian numbers, before tax. With Mywa there's no fee on top, only $14.99/month flat.

Not on the official API. Meta charges each delivered marketing message. The WhatsApp Business app's broadcast lists are free but only reach contacts who saved your number, and unofficial bulk-sending tools risk getting the number banned.

Meta charges per delivered message. Some providers charge their own fee on failed messages too: Twilio lists $0.001 per failed message (checked 25 October 2026).

Each recipient's. Meta charges by the country code of every number you message, so a campaign to a mixed list is billed at each country's own rate.

No. Mywa's plan includes unlimited contacts and campaigns. Meta sets daily messaging limits per business, which rise as people engage with what you send.
