SMS Gateway: You may either use SMS connectivity provided by Unecast (operator links) or supply your own SMS gateway credentials (SMPP or HTTP-API). We will integrate/configure those credentials in the Services for you.
WhatsApp Business Platform: Unecast will assist you in the end-to-end integration of the WhatsApp Business Platform (Meta) — from requirement gathering, configuration, connecting via Unecast, to testing and deployment.
Pricing & Charges: You will be charged by Meta directly for use of the WhatsApp Business Platform (message templates, conversation/message categories, per-message or per-conversation pricing) as determined by Meta’s rate card and policy. https://business.whatsapp.com/products/platform-pricing. Unecast may additionally charge for our integration services, but Meta’s fees are separate and payable by you.
