WhatsApp automation for your business

We build WhatsApp automations on the official WhatsApp Business API. They answer customer questions, send order and payment updates, book appointments and hand any chat they can't answer to your team. They connect to the store, CRM and payment tools you already use. Meta's per-message fees are listed separately, and we keep everything running after launch.

Plan. Build. Deploy. Live in 90 days.

Your first automation is live within 30 days, or we keep working free until it is.

If your first automation isn’t live within 30 days, you get your money back. See the terms

Questions buyers ask

Is the WhatsApp Business API free?

No. The WhatsApp Business app is free, but automation runs on the API, and Meta charges for API messages one by one, at rates set by the message type and your customer's country. Meta can change those rates each quarter, so your quote lists the current ones.

Is there a setup fee, and are there hidden fees?

There are two costs, and both are in your written quote before work starts: Meta's message fees, billed at cost, and our fixed price for building and running the automation.

Can I use my existing WhatsApp number?

Usually, yes. If the number runs on the WhatsApp Business app, Meta lets it connect to the API while you keep using the app, so the number and up to six months of chat history stay. A number on personal WhatsApp moves to a business account first, and we check which route fits your number on the call.

Once my number moves to the API, can I still use WhatsApp on my phone?

Yes, if the number is connected through Meta's option for using the app and the API together: your team keeps chatting in the WhatsApp Business app while the automations send through the API. A number moved to the API without that option can no longer be used in the app.

When are WhatsApp fees applied, and what is the 24-hour customer service window?

Meta charges for the pre-approved template messages you send, such as order updates, reminders and offers. The 24-hour customer service window opens each time a customer messages you, and replies inside it are priced differently from messages you start. Meta adjusts these rules from time to time, so we check its current rate card when we quote.

Do chatbot and AI replies count as paid messages?

They're charged exactly like replies typed by a person. Meta prices a message by its type, the window it's sent in and the customer's country, not by who or what wrote it.

How do brands use WhatsApp automation to increase sales?

Mostly by being fast and on time: replying to new leads in seconds, reminding shoppers who opted in about their cart, sending payment links and prompting re-orders when stock usually runs out. We don't quote sales figures we haven't measured; your before-and-after report at day 90 shows your own.

Should I use SMS alongside WhatsApp?

Use both if your customers do. WhatsApp suits conversations and updates for people who use it every day, while SMS reaches any phone number. Our marketing automation service runs SMS and email follow-up alongside WhatsApp.
