A WhatsApp Business number can be moved between providers. Your approved templates and contact lists need to be exported and set up again. On Growth and Pro we do this with you. Message us on WhatsApp first so we can check your account before you switch.
You pay Meta directly, at Meta’s own published rates. KayChat charges only the plan price and adds nothing per message.
