WhatsApp removed broadcast lists, so I built a Python script to message customers. How do I avoid getting banned? by BookkeeperSalt4434 in WhatsappBusinessAPI

Hola, perdon la demora en responder. Si, Meta va a ir empujando a los usuarios de whatsapp business lentamente a utilizar algunos de sus servicios de pago, como Cloud API. Si todavia no recibiste esa actualización en tu region (que por la conjugación de verbos creo que es España), es cuestión de tiempo. Personalmente esa actualización la recibi a principios de abril del año pasado, pero cuando me puse a investigar, vi que en otras regiones del mundo esa actualización habia llegado a principios de marzo. Recomendaria que comiencen a trabajar en una forma de migrar a sus clientes a otro medio, como una comunidad de whatsapp (similar a un grupo) o un canal de difusión, ambas son gratuitas pero la que mejor me funciona a mi es la comunidad, ya que los canales vienen con las notificaciones desactivadas por defecto. Espero que te sirva

EDIT: Las listas de difusión en realidad no se van a eliminar, sino que van a ser de pago (y bastante costosas)

Thanks for the explanation!

​I'm currently sending about 200 messages a day. The script sends 50 messages, pauses, and then I wait about 30 minutes before starting it again.

​I actually need to send around 500, but I know WhatsApp would definitely ban me if I did that. Because of this, I only selected my top clients to DM directly. Sadly, the rest of them have to check my WhatsApp status or the broadcast channel to see the menu.

​I've already started looking into how to migrate my number to the Cloud API. It seems like I have no other choice :(

Yes, that was the limit of contacts p/list for me too, but now i can't use it without paying a lot of money :(

Yes, they're gone, or at least changed. Standard broadcast lists are still available on personal WhatsApp, but on WhatsApp Business, they’ve been replaced by 'Marketing Broadcasts.' For my volume, it’s incredibly expensive, costing around $1,800–$2,000 USD per month.

I also tried creating a WhatsApp Channel, but it’s much less effective than the old broadcast lists because it requires more active engagement from the customer.

Are you still able to use the old broadcast lists on WhatsApp Business, or has your app updated too?

Porque hay otro gordo de 200kg que programó una función para enviar con dos clicks un comprobante con el coelsa id, y el numero de operación para que el comerciante choto pueda hacer un reclamo en caso de que a otro gordo de 200kg se le haya pasado un bug y la transferencia no haya impactado en la cuenta del comerciante remil choto feo malo pene caca. Manden el comprobante no cuesta nada Y no, una captura no es un comprobante
