WhatsApp imposes messaging limits to ensure quality interactions and prevent spam. These limits are crucial for businesses to understand and manage effectively.


Initial limits and warm-up period

When you start using WhatsApp for business, you cannot send messages to large audiences immediately. Each WhatsApp account begins with a default limit of 1,000 messages per day. This limit can be increased gradually by consistently sending high-quality messages.


Key points to remember

  • Daily limit exceeded

    If you exceed your daily messaging limit, your messages will not be delivered, and you will not be charged.

  • Avoid over-sending

    Even though undelivered messages are not charged, it is important not to continue sending messages once the limit is reached.

  • Check limits

    You can monitor your daily messaging limits in WhatsApp Manager under the Phone Numbers section.
