WA Bridges is your wholesale cost: a flat $3/month per active WhatsApp number. What you charge on top is entirely yours. Package it, brand it, price it per-seat or flat — and keep the margin on every bridge you resell.
Reselling is the oldest business model there is: buy at wholesale, add value, sell at retail, keep the spread. WhatsApp connectivity is a great thing to resell because the wholesale price is flat and predictable, and the retail value to your customers — a working WhatsApp number wired into your product — is worth far more than it costs you.
Your wholesale cost on WA Bridges is $3/month per active bridge. That's the whole input. There are no per-message fees, no template-approval surcharges, and no minimum commitment. You decide the retail price — $19, $49, bundled into a higher tier, whatever the market bears — and the difference is your margin. When a customer churns and you delete their bridge, your cost stops immediately with a prorated refund, so your margin never goes underwater on a cancelled account.
I'm reselling WhatsApp bridges to my customers on top of WA Bridges. My wholesale cost is a flat $3/month per active bridge; I set my own retail price and keep the margin. I want a small model and the provisioning glue. My stack: [Node.js + Stripe for billing — update this to yours] My setup: - WA_API_KEY: my WA Bridges API key - Stripe for charging my customers at my retail price - Each customer has an id I'll use as customer_ref I need: 1. A pricing helper that takes my retail price per bridge and returns the per-account gross margin and margin %, given the $3 wholesale cost. Print a small table for retail prices of $9, $19, $29, and $49. 2. provisionOnSale(customerId): when a customer's Stripe subscription becomes active, POST /api/instances with their id as customer_ref and store the returned bridge id against the customer. 3. deprovisionOnChurn(customerId): when their subscription is cancelled, delete the bridge so my $3 cost stops and I get the prorated refund. Please read the WA Bridges API docs before writing any code: https://wabridges.com/docs.txt Keep my retail pricing entirely on my side — WA Bridges should only ever see the flat wholesale relationship. Comment the margin math clearly so I can tweak my prices later.
