Comparison FAQ

How to read this table without mixing up Meta's fee and ours.

Does every platform pay Meta the same WhatsApp rate?+
Yes. Meta's India marketing rate is ₹0.8631 per message (rate card effective 1 October 2026) on every platform. What differs is the vendor's subscription and its markup. PayPerWA shows Meta's ₹0.86 and its own ₹0.20 separately, never as one bundled number. On PayPerWA, Meta bills its fee straight to the payment method on your WhatsApp Business Account; your prepaid PayPerWA wallet pays only the ₹0.20.
Which costs less: Wati, AiSensy, Interakt or PayPerWA?+
It depends on your volume and message type. For marketing messages at low and medium volume, PayPerWA costs less because it has no subscription. AiSensy charges more per marketing message than PayPerWA (₹1.09 vs Meta ₹0.86 + PayPerWA ₹0.20 = ₹1.06), so PayPerWA costs less for marketing at every volume. Interakt's yearly Starter plan costs less than PayPerWA above roughly 11,100 marketing messages a month (Interakt Growth on monthly billing above roughly 27,400), and Wati Pro above roughly 96,400 (about 72,700 billed yearly). For utility-heavy senders, AiSensy's ₹0.145 all-in utility rate costs less than PayPerWA's Meta ₹0.115 + ₹0.20 above roughly 8,800 utility messages a month. Competitor figures are before GST. The one-vs-one pages show the exact numbers.
