Wati's plans include a set number of users. CCX charges by message volume, with no per-seat fee

On the table Wati shows visitors from the United States, each plan comes with a set number of users and messages are billed separately. CCX publishes an all-included price per message and a monthly fee based on message volume, with no setup fee and no lock-in.

Wati is a WhatsApp Business API platform with a team inbox, automation and AI agents, and it also covers Instagram and other channels. Its pricing page changes with the visitor's country: the figures here are the ones it shows from the United States, in dollars. From Brazil, the same page shows another table, in reais, with different limits.

The price, side by side

From the United States, Wati charges $69 a month on Growth ($59 billed annually), with 3 users; $149 on Pro ($119), with 5 users; and $349 on Business ($279), also with 5 users. Messages are billed separately, at Wati's rate card. CCX publishes the monthly fee for each band, from US$39 to US$399, and the price per message, all included: US$0.0084 for utility.

The two monthly fees measure different things: Wati's is tied to users. Growth takes no additional users, and extras cost $39 a month on Pro and $89 on Business. CCX's follows message volume, with no per-seat fee. Because Wati's table changes with the visitor's country, check the source from yours and add messages on both sides before comparing.

How much does Wati cost?

On its official page, seen from the United States: Growth at $69 a month ($59 billed annually), Pro at $149 ($119) and Business at $349 ($279). Messages are billed separately, and the table changes with the visitor's country. CCX costs US$39 to US$399 a month, depending on volume, with each message's price published, all included.

Why does Wati's price change by country?

Wati's page shows a table according to where the visitor is. On the same day, we read one in dollars from the United States and another in reais from Brazil, with different prices and limits: the Brazilian one also counts monthly active contacts. That's why this page says which table it quotes and links to the source.

Does Wati charge per user?

Each plan includes a set number of users: 3 on Growth and 5 on Pro and Business. Growth takes no additional users; extras cost $39 a month on Pro and $89 on Business. CCX charges per user for nothing: agents, teams and queues have no per-person cost.

Is there a free trial?

Wati offers 7 days, with no credit card. CCX gives you US$5 of test credit when you sign up on the website, with no card or contract.

How does moving the number work?

The number is yours and stays yours: what changes is which platform answers for it at Meta. You connect it through Meta's own signup flow, and we walk through the migration with you.
