Frequently asked questions about the Meta agent
How much does the Meta Business Agent cost per conversation?
Meta charges per message. At the complexity of a real sale it runs about US$0.06 per message, and if each conversation has ~4 agent messages, that is around US$0.24 per conversation, from August 1, 2026. That price already includes delivery.
Why is yavendió cheaper?
yavendió charges per conversation (from ~US$0.06), not per message. What Meta charges for a single message, yavendió charges for the whole conversation, and it includes the full platform and a specialized expert.
Why does yavendió add a message cost and Meta does not?
With the Meta agent, delivery is included in its price. With an external platform like yavendió, WhatsApp messages are billed separately by Meta, and from October 1, 2026 service messages stop being free. That's why we add them on the yavendió side to compare the real cost.
Was the Meta agent free?
Yes, until July 31, 2026. From August 1, 2026 Meta charges for all of its agent messages.
