Who suits what
When another platform fits, and when Fliok does
Another platform may suit you if…
- You want the lowest plan fee, and you send few messages and need no chatbot, CRM or AI.
- You need several channels, such as Messenger or RCS, in one combined inbox.
- You need very large teams or sending speeds on a single plan.
- You want a long track record and a large support team.
Fliok may suit you if…
- You want Meta to bill you directly for messages, with nothing added.
- You want to switch coexistence on yourself, on any plan including Free.
- You want a built-in CRM with pipelines, routing and IndiaMART capture, from Basic.
- You would rather pay ₹0.50 per AI reply (from Basic) than buy AI bundles.

Is Fliok cheaper than other WhatsApp platforms?
Not always on the plan fee: some platforms charge less a month than Fliok’s Basic (₹1,999 or $29, depending on where you’re billed). Fliok’s Basic includes chatbots, the CRM and the AI agent (₹0.50 a reply), and Meta bills your messages directly at its own rates with nothing added, so compare the whole monthly bill for your own volumes.
Which WhatsApp platform is best for a small business?
It depends. To start free, keep your Business App and have Meta bill you directly, Fliok fits. For Messenger or RCS in one inbox, very large teams on one plan, or a long track record, other platforms have real strengths.
Do other platforms use the official WhatsApp Business API?
Fliok runs on Meta’s official Cloud API. Ask any platform you consider which API it uses, and whether its per-message price is Meta’s own.
Can I move my WhatsApp number from another platform to Fliok?
Yes. Release it from the old provider first (in the Business App: Settings → Account → Business platform), then connect it to Fliok with coexistence. Write to us first and we will check the path for your number.
