Simple, transparent pricing
Your first 50 successful verifications are free after you verify your account phone with one WhatsApp message. Then new accounts pay $0.006 per message sent until 500 successes, followed by country-priced pay-per-success billing. A $2 minimum balance applies after the free allowance; there are no subscriptions.

How billing works
Three simple stages — no subscription, ever.
- Free trial$0no card required
Your first 50 successful verifications are on us once you verify your account phone with one WhatsApp message.
- New accounts$0.006/ message sent
Per message sent, until your first 500 successful verifications.
- Steady state$0.01/ successful verification
The steady-state Egypt and own-number software rate. Shared-number rates vary by destination country.
A $2 minimum balance is required to send. Top up by card via Polar (USD, from $20), credited automatically the moment payment completes — or by InstaPay bank transfer in EGP (from $5), credited once we confirm it.
Two-Factor (TOTP)
A second, independent verification method — any authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password), no message ever sent. No delivery cost to us, so it's priced well below WhatsApp/Telegram OTP.
Prepaid credit packs
Add prepaid credit and draw it down at your active billing rate. Credit never expires. Verification counts below are illustrations at the $0.01 Egypt and own-number software rate; other shared destinations use their published country rate.
Starter
For a side project or your first integration. Bank transfer only — card top-ups start at $20.
Growth
For an app winning its first real users.
Business
High-volume prepaid credit at the standard rate.
Two ways to add credit. Pick the one that fits you.
Both give you the same US-dollar credit, and the full amount you choose goes to your balance. What differs is how you pay and that method's fee, which covers its processing cost.
Card via Polar
Best if you have a credit card, or any card that can pay online in US dollars. Many Egyptian debit and prepaid cards are limited for US-dollar payments; if yours is, use InstaPay.
- Fee
- Card processing fee of 6.5% + $0.50, plus sales tax or VAT where it applies
- You pay in
- US dollars
- Minimum
- $20
- Credited
- Automatically, within seconds
Example: $20.00 credit: you pay $21.93 by card ($20.00 + $1.93 processing fee).
InstaPay bank transfer (Egypt)

Best if you have an Egyptian bank account or wallet and prefer to pay in Egyptian pounds, or if your card can't pay in US dollars. No card needed.
- Fee
- Currency-conversion fee of 5%. No card fee.
- You pay in
- Egyptian pounds
- Minimum
- $5
- Credited
- After we confirm your transfer (not instant)
Example: $20.00 credit: you transfer $20.00 at today's EGP rate + 5%. Your dashboard shows the exact EGP amount before you transfer.
| Credit added | Card via Polar | InstaPay (EGP) |
|---|---|---|
| $20.00 | $21.93 | — |
| $50.00 | $54.01 | — |
| $100.00 | $107.49 | — |
InstaPay amounts are today's EGP rate + 5%; your dashboard shows the exact amount. Card amounts are before any sales tax or VAT. InstaPay also works for smaller top-ups, from $5.00.
What you receive
- Prepaid credit in US dollars on your Authevo account: the full amount you choose, whichever way you pay.

On the Authevo number: needs 70%+ of sent codes verified over the last 30 days
With your own WhatsApp number
These rates are applied on request once you're consistently at the volume shown. Pack verification counts use the $0.01 Egypt and own-number software rate as an illustration; credit itself pays your active rate. The $0.006 volume rate requires your own WhatsApp Business number. On the Authevo number, the $0.008 rate needs at least 70% of sent codes verified over the last 30 days, and returns to the standard rate if that falls below 68%.
Verification at scale
For 100,000+ verifications a month: the same $0.006–$0.01 per verification, plus a monthly platform fee for dedicated support and custom terms.
- DPA & compliance review
- Dedicated support channel
- Monthly invoicing, not prepaid credit
- Custom spend caps & volume

Authevo's $0.01 is charged only when a verification succeeds. Meta's rate is charged per message you send, and Meta bills you for it directly. So each figure above is a verification that lands on its first message — a code your user never completes adds Meta's rate again, and nothing from Authevo. To send with no WhatsApp setup at all, see the shared-number prices below.
Sourced to Meta's official WhatsApp Business Platform rate card (effective 2026-10-01) plus Authevo's flat $0.01 software fee. Real published numbers on both sides — nothing here is estimated.

On your own WhatsApp number
Connect your own WhatsApp Business number and every country on earth is in range at the same rate you pay for Egyptian numbers — Meta bills you for delivery directly, so we add no destination surcharge. New accounts pay the per-message rate until they graduate, here as everywhere.
- Kuwait
- Morocco
- Oman
- Qatar
These are steady-state, per-success shared-number rates and they vary by destination. The first 50 successful verifications are free after you verify your account phone with one WhatsApp message; new accounts then pay $0.006 per message sent until 500 successes. A $2 minimum balance is required after the free allowance. Prices are read from GET /v1/pricing/countries and checked on every build.
Built for how you ship in Egypt & MENA
Built for Egypt & MENA
Pay in EGP by InstaPay bank transfer — no USD card or foreign invoicing required. Priced and supported for the region you actually operate in.
Arabic-first, hands-on support
Bilingual docs and direct help getting your WhatsApp sender approved — reach the monitored WhatsApp business line or support@authevo.dev during the beta.
WhatsApp with linked-recipient Telegram fallback
After a one-time recipient link, fallback to Telegram is automatic. If the recipient is not linked, the API returns 409 CHANNEL_NOT_LINKED with a one-tap URL your product must show.
Your own branded WhatsApp
Connect your own WhatsApp Business Account and codes send from it, so your sender identity and user data stay isolated once you do. Until then you send on Authevo's shared number.
Two REST endpoints
Send a code, verify a code. No SDK required — you're live in minutes from any backend.
Pay for what works
After 50 free successes (unlocked by a one-message WhatsApp phone check), new accounts pay $0.006 per message until 500 successes. Steady-state shared-number rates then vary by destination; $0.01 is the Egypt and own-number software rate.
