Limits worth knowing in Whapi.Cloud
- It uses a linked-device session on a regular WhatsApp number, not the official Business API, and the vendor says WhatsApp can restrict numbers that send spam-like traffic.
- The phone should be used at least once every 14 days to keep the linked session active, and WhatsApp may reset it and ask for re-authorization.
- There is no inbox or campaign interface; the product is an API, so teams without developers rely on Make, n8n or Zapier.
- The price is per connected number, so a business with several numbers pays for each channel.
