The verdict
For most Indian businesses, AiSensy is the best-value WhatsApp marketing platform — flat monthly pricing with unlimited team members on a proper WhatsApp Business API. WATI is the strongest all-rounder for features and support, Interakt is best if you run a D2C/Shopify store, and Gallabox is best for sales teams that live in a shared inbox. All are official Meta Business Partners built on the WhatsApp Business API — you'll still pay Meta's per-conversation charges on top.
WhatsApp is where India actually buys, so a WhatsApp marketing tool is often higher-ROI than email or ads. These platforms sit on top of the official WhatsApp Business API and give you broadcasts, chatbots, a shared team inbox and CRM-style automation — the things the free WhatsApp Business app can't do at scale.
We set these up and run WhatsApp campaigns for clients, so this ranking reflects real deliverability, approval and support experience — not just feature checklists. Remember the platform fee is separate from Meta's per-conversation pricing, which every provider passes through.
