When you start using the WhatsApp Business API, your account starts with limited capabilities. To increase messaging capacity, your WhatsApp API account needs to be scaled. One of the most common ways to scale your account is by completing Meta Business Manager Verification.
‍

Not Verified

If your business manager is not verified, your WhatsApp account has certain limitations:

• You can start conversations with up to 250 unique customers every 24 hours per Business Manager.
• You can register up to 2 phone numbers.
• You cannot apply for a WhatsApp Official Business Account (Blue Tick).
• If you are using a +1 555 phone number, messages may fail if your display name has not been approved.

Verified

Once your business completes Meta Business Manager Verification, your account gains additional capabilities:

• You can start conversations with up to 2,000 unique customers every 24 hours, and this can increase further through automatic scaling.
• You can register up to 20 phone numbers.
• Your business name can be displayed to customers in chats (after Meta review).
• You become eligible to apply for a WhatsApp Official Business Account (Blue Tick).
