$5/month per WhatsApp number. Each number runs on its own bridge - a dedicated, hosted connection between that number and your app. Your first bridge is free for 7 days, no card required. Cancel anytime and we automatically refund your unused days - something no one else in this market does.
10 numbers? $50/month. 1 number? $5/month. Scale up or down instantly.
If WhatsApp drops the session: your webhook gets a disconnected event the moment it happens, the dashboard shows the pairing QR again, and the same bridge is back in about a minute - same API key, same endpoints, same webhook config, nothing to rebuild. While it’s down, API sends return an error instead of silently dropping. And if the number gets banned?
All limits are per API key, reset every 60 seconds. Exceeded limits return HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header.
When does billing start?
After your 7-day trial ends. If you add a card and keep bridges running, we charge $5 per active bridge per month. If you do nothing, bridges are suspended when the trial expires.
What counts as an “active bridge”?
A bridge you provisioned that is running. Paused or suspended bridges are not billed. You can cancel a bridge at any time and receive an automatic prorated refund for the unused portion of the month.
Is there a per-message fee?
No. Send and receive as many messages as you need. The flat $5/bridge/month covers everything.
Can I run multiple bridges on one account?
Yes. Each bridge is one WhatsApp number. Add as many as you need - billing scales linearly at $5 each.
How does the prorated refund work?
Cancel a bridge mid-month and we immediately refund the unused days to your card. No support ticket, no waiting period. It shows up within a few business days depending on your bank. Refunds under $0.50 are skipped.
What happens if my WhatsApp session drops?
Your webhook gets a disconnected event the moment it happens, so your app knows immediately instead of finding out from users. The dashboard shows the pairing QR again - scan it and the same bridge is back, usually in under a minute, with the same API key, endpoints, and webhook config. Nothing to rebuild. While it’s down, API sends return an error instead of silently dropping, and inbound messages still land on the phone as normal since the bridge is a linked device.
Will my WhatsApp number get banned?
Honest answer: WABridges connects to WhatsApp as a linked device - the same multi-device protocol WhatsApp Web uses - not Meta’s official Business API. WhatsApp may restrict numbers that behave like spammers, regardless of how they connect. Message people who expect to hear from you, don’t cold-blast marketing lists, and use a dedicated number rather than your personal one. Used that way, linked-device automation is low risk - but it’s never zero, and you should know that before you build on it.
What happens if my number does get banned?
Cancel the bridge and the prorated refund for your unused days is automatic, like any other cancellation. Pair a new number to a fresh bridge in under a minute. We never charge for a bridge you’re not running.
