# WhatsApp FAQs

This section includes FAQs regarding WhatsApp Chatbots and Pricing

<details>

<summary>How and when your conversation limits in WhatsApp will increase?</summary>

Each time you initiate a new conversation with a unique customer Meta will determine if your limit should be increased. This determination is based on the following criteria:

* your phone number status is **Connected**
* your phone number quality rating is **Medium** or **High**
* in the last 7 days, you have initiated X or more conversations with unique customers, where X is your current messaging limit divided by 2

If you meet all conditions, we will increase your messaging limit by one level in 24 hours.

</details>

<details>

<summary>How to check Meta Conversation limit</summary>

You can check your current messaging limits in the **WhatsApp Manager** > **Overview Dashboard** > **Insights** tab. The panel depicted below will only show your current limit if your messaging limit has increased from the default limit of 250.

<details>

<summary>What is the phone number quality rating, and how does it affect my messaging limit?</summary>

The phone number quality rating is a measure of your phone number's reliability and trustworthiness when initiating conversations with customers. If your phone number has been flagged in the last 7 days, Meta will immediately decrease your messaging limit by one level. This means you will have a reduced capacity to initiate new conversations with unique customers.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>How to add a new WhatsApp template?</strong></summary>

You can create templates either from the WhatsApp Meta Manager or using the Reekolect template tab.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Is there a free plan?</summary>

No, WhatsApp's new policies do not allow free trials; if anyone provides it, it is nothing but false advertising.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What is your markup on Meta prices?</summary>

We do not charge anything on top of Meta conversation charges; you pay the WhatsApp conversations fee directly to Meta.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Is there any message limit?</summary>

No, all charges are conversations based. Reekolect platform pricing is based on the plan of conversations you choose.

</details>

<details>

<summary>I want a WhatsApp bot along with my website bot, what should I do?</summary>

You must take two separate subscriptions, as WhatsApp has a different pricing structure.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Can you provide me with green-tick verification?</summary>

We do; we'll get you through everything once you start with us.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Can I send bulk messages?</summary>

Yes, they can be scheduled and targeted as per your strategy.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.reekolect.ai/reekolect-resource-center/frequently-asked-questions-faqs/whatsapp-faqs.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
