What you get in the free trial
The 15-day trial is the full official WhatsApp Business API stack — not a stripped-down sandbox. Everything below is live during the trial, running on the real API through WatEase as a Meta-approved BSP.
Official Business API access
The trial runs on the real WhatsApp Business API through WatEase as a Meta-approved BSP — not a sandbox or an unofficial automation workaround that puts your number at risk.
Green-tick-eligible number
Connect a number that qualifies to apply for the official WhatsApp Business verification badge. The green tick is granted by Meta; WatEase gets your number onto the API so it is eligible.
Broadcasts past the App cap
Send template broadcasts to opted-in audiences well beyond the 256-contact limit of the free WhatsApp App — the reason most businesses move to the Business API in the first place.
Multi-channel shared inbox
A team inbox for WhatsApp and your other channels — assign, reply and hand off conversations so a real person can take over any chat during the trial.
In-chat UPI checkout + GST invoicing
Collect payments inside the WhatsApp thread with UPI (Razorpay / PhonePe / Paytm) and raise a GST-compliant invoice — so a trial conversation can end in a real, paid order.
AI answers & order-taking
AI that reads inbound messages, answers from your catalog, and takes orders end-to-end — available today, so you can test automated selling during the free trial.
Looking for the broader platform trial rather than the Business API angle? See the WhatsApp free trial page.
What happens after the trial
The trial runs for 15 days with no credit card. When it ends, you move to a paid plan to keep sending — there is no free-forever tier. Pricing starts at Growth ₹1,999/month for the full commerce and messaging stack, Pro is ₹3,999/month for the richer AI, and Enterprise adds enterprise controls. On every plan, Meta conversation charges pass through at 0% markup — while many competitors add 20–25% on top of Meta's rates. Use the free conversation cost calculator to estimate your monthly Meta bill in INR alongside the subscription.
Live on the official API in minutes
Sign up, connect a green-tick-eligible number through WatEase as your Meta-approved BSP, and start sending on the real WhatsApp Business API — broadcasts, inbox, UPI checkout and AI included for the full 15-day trial. No credit card until you decide to continue.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a free trial of the WhatsApp Business API?
Yes. Through WatEase — a Meta-approved WhatsApp Business Solution Provider (BSP) — you can start a 15-day free trial of the official WhatsApp Business API with no credit card. The trial is the real API, not a sandbox: you get a green-tick-eligible number, broadcasts past the 256-contact WhatsApp App cap, a multi-channel shared inbox, in-chat UPI checkout with GST invoicing, and AI answers and order-taking. After 15 days you move to a paid plan starting at ₹1,999/month — there is no free-forever plan.
Do I need a credit card to start the trial?
No. You can start the 15-day free trial of the WhatsApp Business API without entering a credit card. You sign up, connect a green-tick-eligible number through WatEase as your Meta-approved BSP, and use the full stack during the trial. You only add payment details when you choose to continue on a paid plan after the trial ends.
What happens when the trial ends?
After 15 days the free trial ends and you move to a paid plan to keep sending — there is no free-forever tier. Pricing starts at Growth ₹1,999/month for the full commerce and messaging stack, Pro is ₹3,999/month for the richer AI, and Enterprise adds enterprise controls. On every plan Meta conversation charges pass through at 0% markup, while many competitors add 20–25% on top of Meta's rates.
Can I get a green tick during or after the trial?
The number you connect through WatEase is green-tick-eligible — the green tick (the official WhatsApp Business Account verification badge) is granted by Meta, not by WatEase, and depends on your brand meeting Meta's criteria. WatEase runs you on the official Business API through a Meta-approved BSP so your number qualifies to apply; the trial lets you get set up and start sending while that is in motion.
Is WatEase a Meta-approved BSP?
Yes. WatEase is a Meta-approved WhatsApp Business Solution Provider (BSP), so your trial runs on the official WhatsApp Business API — not an unofficial workaround or a scraped-automation tool that risks your number. That means green-tick-eligible numbers, official message templates, and Meta conversation pricing passed through at cost. Data for Indian customers stays in ap-south-1 (Mumbai) and the platform is DPDPA-2023 aligned.
How much does it cost after the free trial?
WatEase starts on the Growth plan at ₹1,999/month for the full commerce plus messaging stack with 0% markup on WhatsApp messages — Meta conversation charges are passed through at cost while many competitors add 20–25%. The richer AI ships on the Pro plan at ₹3,999/month; enterprise controls sit on Enterprise. See the pricing page for the full breakdown and use the free conversation cost calculator to estimate your monthly Meta bill in INR.
