Responsible messaging

Built for the UK's messaging rules

Marketing messages to people in the UK fall under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR, regulation 22) and UK GDPR, enforced by the ICO. The ICO counts in-app messages and private social media messages as electronic mail, so you need consent — or the soft opt-in for existing customers — and an easy opt-out in every message. Since 5 February 2026 the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 lets the ICO fine PECR breaches up to £17.5 million or 4% of global turnover. QuickWA helps you record consent and honour opt-outs; you remain responsible for your own compliance.

✅

Official Meta API

Built on the official WhatsApp Cloud API — no grey-market tools or unofficial apps. Your number's quality rating stays visible, so you can act before Meta limits sending.

🕘

Sending Hours

Set a sending window in Settings — for example 9 AM–8 PM. A scheduled broadcast outside it waits and goes out when the window reopens, so nobody gets a promo at midnight.

🛡️

Consent & Opt-outs

Record how each contact opted in — consent or soft opt-in — and every STOP or UNSUBSCRIBE reply is honoured automatically across broadcasts and journeys.

🧾

Clear Costs

Plans from $5/month (about £3.74), monthly or yearly. Meta's messaging fees are invoiced to you by Meta, with no QuickWA markup.

Questions

Everything businesses in the UK ask us

What is the cheapest WhatsApp Business API in the UK? +
On the pricing pages we checked on 26 October 2026, QuickWA had the lowest paid starting price at $5/month (about £3.74). ChatMaxima starts at US$19/month, respond.io at US$79/month on yearly billing and Trengo at €299/month on annual billing. Meta's per-message fees are the same with every provider.
How much does the WhatsApp Business API cost in the UK? +
Two parts: your platform plan and Meta's message fees. From 1 October 2026 Meta charges UK businesses £0.0458 per marketing message and £0.0159 per utility, authentication or service message, with 1,000 free service messages per number each month. With QuickWA the platform starts at $5/month and Meta's fees reach you at cost.
Is QuickWA an official Meta WhatsApp provider? +
QuickWA is built on Meta's official WhatsApp Cloud API and connects your number through Meta's embedded signup. You own your WhatsApp Business Account, and Meta invoices message fees to you directly.
Can I keep my existing UK WhatsApp number? +
Yes. Any +44 mobile or landline that can receive a verification code works. If the number is already on the WhatsApp Business app, Coexistence lets you keep using the app on the same number; a few app features — such as broadcast lists, labels and quick replies — stop working there, and QuickWA provides inbox equivalents.
What documents do I need for Meta business verification in the UK? +
Meta asks for official documents that match your legal business name and address. For a limited company that is usually your Companies House certificate of incorporation (with your company number); sole traders and partnerships need documents that show the same trading name and address. Meta makes the decision.
Is WhatsApp marketing legal in the UK? +
Yes, with permission. Under PECR regulation 22 you need consent, or the soft opt-in for existing customers who bought or asked about similar products, plus an opt-out in every message. The ICO treats in-app messages as electronic mail, and since 5 February 2026 PECR fines can reach £17.5 million or 4% of global turnover. This is not legal advice.
Does QuickWA work with Shopify and WooCommerce? +
Yes. Connect your store and order confirmations, shipping updates and abandoned-cart reminders go out on WhatsApp automatically. You can also send Stripe payment links in the chat.
Do I pay per agent? +
No. QuickWA has no per-seat fees and no setup fee, so you can add your whole team. AI, automation, calling and integrations are included from the Pro plan.
How does billing work for UK businesses? +
QuickWA bills UK accounts in US dollars, monthly or yearly — a yearly plan costs 20% less than 12 monthly payments. Subscriptions renew until you cancel, and every plan, feature and message limit is shown after sign-up. Meta's message fees are billed by Meta directly, at its published UK rates.
