The part nobody explains
You will get two bills. Only one of them is ours.
Platforms that resell messages roll both into one number and keep the difference. We are a Meta Tech Provider and are not allowed to, so here is exactly who charges you for what.

Working hours, welcome and away repliesSet your opening hours once, for your website chat and WhatsApp together. Switch on a welcome message for someone's first message, and an away reply for messages outside your hours that tells them when you are back. The away reply goes at most once every 12 hours to the same person, and nothing is sent if a flow, a bot or your team has just written to them. Both are off until you switch them on.

Close idle chats automaticallyChoose how many hours of silence close a chat. Only chats where your team wrote last are closed, so a customer who is still waiting is never closed on. A new message from the customer reopens it, and the inbox marks the ones that closed themselves. Off until you switch it on.

Opt-out and opt-in words you chooseWhen a customer writes STOP they are opted out, told so, and left out of campaigns; START brings them back. You can change those words and your reply to each, in any language, Hindi included. Every change is recorded with the time and how it happened (a word they sent, a team member or the API), and you can download that record. An optional switch makes the API refuse to message someone who has opted out; it is off until you switch it on.

✓
✓
Pause when Meta changes a template's categoryIf Meta re-labels a template from Utility to Marketing after you set up a campaign, sending pauses and your owners are emailed, because Marketing messages cost more. It carries on by itself if Meta changes it back, or you can continue it as Marketing. We check every 5 minutes, so a few messages can still go out before Meta's change is seen.

Questions
The things people ask before they pay.
What do I actually pay VartaAPI?
Your plan, and nothing else. GST at 18% is added when you pay, and you get a proper tax invoice with your GSTIN on it so a registered business can claim the input credit. There is no per-message charge, no setup fee and no wallet to top up.
Then who charges me for the messages?
Meta does, directly, on the card attached to your own WhatsApp Business Account. That money never passes through us and we add nothing to it. It is the whole reason this page is cheaper than a reseller’s.
Can I change plan or stop?
Change whenever you like. If you cancel, you keep everything until the end of the period you have already paid for, and then you have no plan: your number, contacts and history stay and you can still see every message, but sending is paused until you choose a plan.
Do I need my own WhatsApp number?
Yes, and that is the point. The number lives on your own Meta account, you hold its two-step PIN, and you can move it to another provider any day you like without asking us.
Is there a free plan or a free trial?
There is no permanent free plan. Every new account gets a 7-day free trial with everything in Comet and no card needed. When it ends you can still see all your messages and contacts, but sending is paused until you choose a plan, from Spark at ₹199 a month. Nothing is deleted. Meta charges you for the messages you send, at Meta’s rate. (The chat for your website, VartaAPI Desk, does have a free plan, Hello.)
Are replies to customers free?
Since 1 October 2026, Meta gives each WhatsApp number 1,000 free replies a month (messages you send inside the 24-hour window after a customer writes). After that Meta charges ₹0.115 a reply in India, the same as a utility message. Utility templates are now charged even while that window is open. These go on Meta’s bill, not ours.
What if I need more than the seats or chatbots included?
Extra team members are ₹750 each per month on Comet and above (Spark is for one person). Five more chatbot flows are ₹750 a month (₹2,025 for 3 months, ₹7,200 a year). Both are bought in the app and last for as long as you pay for them.
Is there a limit on flows, tags and custom fields?
Yes. Each plan allows a number of each, shown in the table below: for example Comet allows 5 chatbot flows, 50 tags and 10 custom fields. Contacts are always unlimited. If you are over a number, nothing is deleted: you keep what you have and can add more once you move up a plan or buy a pack of flows.
Where is the sales pipeline?
The sales pipeline with follow-up tasks is part of Nova and the bigger plans. If you already had it on Comet or Orbit, you keep it for as long as you stay on that plan.
How fast do you reply to support?
On working days, by chat and email: Comet within 4 to 5 working hours, Orbit and Nova within 3 to 4, Infinity within 1 to 2 hours (chat and phone). These are the times we aim for, not a guarantee, and support is online only: we do not visit in person.
Try it free for 7 days.
Connect a real number this afternoon, with everything in Comet and no card needed. Plans start at ₹199 a month afterwards.
