WhatsApp Business API in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh

How WhatsApp pricing actually works in 2026

This is where most Jabalpur owners get misinformed, so it is worth being precise. Since 1 July 2025, Meta bills the WhatsApp Business API per delivered message, priced by category — marketing, utility, or authentication — not per 24-hour conversation as the old model did. The 24-hour window still exists, but it is now a free service window: when a customer messages you first, you can reply with normal (non-template) messages for 24 hours at no messaging charge. Business-initiated template messages outside that window are billed per delivered message at the category rate. InfiQ shows you these rates directly and applies its own transparent platform pricing on top, all in ₹ and ex-GST, so a Jabalpur business can forecast spend by message volume and category rather than guessing. Utility and authentication messages typically cost far less than marketing, which is why well-structured order updates and OTP flows are so cost-efficient at scale.

Local onboarding, ₹ pricing and GST invoicing

Getting live is a short, guided process rather than a technical project. InfiQ verifies your business in Meta Business Manager, connects your existing or new number through Embedded Signup — you keep full ownership of the account and its BSUID (Business-Scoped User ID) — helps you get your first message templates approved, and switches you live, typically within 2 hours once Meta's business verification clears. Plans are billed in ₹ with a proper GST invoice raised to your Madhya Pradesh business, so your accountant in Jabalpur has clean input for filing. Because messaging is metered, you are never locked into a flat bundle you cannot use — you pay a plan for the platform plus per-message costs by category as you send.

Support and language for your Jabalpur team

Jabalpur customers are overwhelmingly comfortable in Hindi, and your best conversion often comes from a message that reads naturally rather than one that sounds translated. InfiQ supports Hindi and English templates and automations, so you can send order confirmations, fee reminders, offers and support replies in the language your customer prefers, while your team manages everything from one shared inbox. Support runs on India hours, which matters when a mandi dispatch or a coaching-batch broadcast needs to go out on time. As WhatsApp rolls out usernames and BSUID-based identity through 2026, InfiQ handles those account changes for you so your Jabalpur setup stays compliant without you tracking every Meta update.
