A WATI alternative that doesn’t charge per seat.

WATI prices by user and keeps extra WhatsApp numbers for its top plan. WaSparks has no per-seat pricing, up to three numbers on Blaze, and Meta bills its message charges to you directly. Here’s the arithmetic, from WATI’s published pricing.

Which one fits?

Both are built on Meta’s official WhatsApp Business Platform. Here’s when each makes more sense.

Choose WATI if

You want AI agents and an AI copilot included on every plan today. Flint answering your customers is still in pilot at WaSparks.
You need round-robin or load-based assignment across your team: both come with WATI’s Business plan.
You rely on WATI’s ready-made CRM integrations, such as HubSpot on Pro or Salesforce on Business.

Choose WaSparks if

Your team will grow. Spark and Blaze have no per-seat pricing, so the fourth or the fourteenth person costs nothing extra.
You need two or three numbers without moving to an ₹18,499 plan. Blaze includes three.
You want Meta to bill your WhatsApp account directly at Meta’s own rate, with a cost estimate before every send.
You want the public API and signed webhooks from your first paid plan.

Moving from WATI.

Moving a number between providers is a Meta process. Here’s what it involves. See the full setup guide.

Turn off two-step verification
Meta asks for it to be off on the number before it can move. You can turn it back on afterwards.
Connect the number in WaSparks
Start Meta’s Embedded Signup from WaSparks and choose your existing number. Meta sends a code to confirm it.
Your number carries on
The number registers without interruption. Its display name, quality rating, messaging limit and verified status come with it.
Check your templates
Approved, high-quality templates are copied across and re-reviewed by Meta. They’re ready to send once that finishes.

Questions about switching.

What changes when you move from WATI.

Will I lose my display name or verified badge if I move from WATI?

No. When a number moves between providers, Meta keeps its display name, quality rating, messaging limit and Official Business Account status. Approved templates are copied and re-reviewed.

Do I pay Meta through WaSparks?

No. Meta bills its per-message charges to your own WhatsApp Business account, at Meta’s rate. WaSparks charges only for the plan, and estimates Meta’s cost before every send.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Ember is a 30-day free trial with 1,000 messages and 3 seats, on a real number. No card needed to start.

Can I try WaSparks without leaving WATI?

Yes. Connect a different number to WaSparks for the trial, and move your main number from WATI only when you’re ready.
