How this is calculated
- Meta charges for every delivered template message, by category and by the recipient's country — not yours.
- Volume discounts are included: Meta lowers the utility and authentication rate once a month's volume passes set thresholds, and the lower rate applies only to the messages past each threshold. Meta counts across all your numbers in the same country.
- Utility templates sent inside an open customer service window are charged like any other from 1 October 2026.
- Conversations that start from a Click-to-WhatsApp ad open a 72-hour window in which every message is free — not counted here.
This estimate is indicative and based on Meta's published rates, which Meta revises on its own schedule. The invoice Meta sends you is the only authority. Amounts in currencies other than the dollar are approximate — Meta bills in USD, and the actual exchange rate is set by your card issuer on the day it settles. FASLA CLOUD takes a 0% margin on messages. Exchange rates by ExchangeRate-API, updated daily.
