- LKR 0.50 per transactional and LKR 0.70 per promotional SMS, taxes included

- 50 free test SMS credits for new accounts
- Your brand as the sender: typically 1 to 2 business days to register
- Web platform for campaigns, API for your systems
You will need: your business registration document, the sender ID you want (check it with the sender ID checker) and two or three sample messages.
WhatsApp Business API
A shared team inbox, campaigns, order updates and AI replies on one verified number, from an Official Meta Tech Provider.
- Plans from LKR 8,500 a month, plus Meta's message fees at no markup
- Most businesses complete onboarding in 10 to 30 minutes
- Keep using your WhatsApp Business app number with Coexistence
- AI agent and website live chat in every plan; WhatsApp calling from the Growth plan
- Meta business verification handled with our help
You will need: the phone number for WhatsApp, access to your Facebook business account and your business documents for Meta verification. See WhatsApp pricing in Sri Lanka.
Starting small? Here is the low-risk path
- Start with SMS. There is no monthly fee, so a shop or clinic sending a few hundred reminders pays only for those messages. Use the SMS character counter to see the cost before you send.
- Use the free WhatsApp Business app until it holds you back. When several people need to answer the same number, you miss chats after hours or you need order updates sent automatically, it is time for the API. Our guide WhatsApp Business app vs API explains when the upgrade pays for itself.
- Move up without changing number. With Coexistence you keep your existing WhatsApp Business app number and chat history while adding a shared inbox, campaigns and an AI agent.

Getting started questions
Trials, contracts, payment and what you need to begin.
Can I try Bloomwire before I pay?
Yes. New SMS accounts get 50 free test SMS credits, so you can send test messages to your own phones before you top up. For WhatsApp, book a demo and we will show it working on your own use case before you sign up.
Do I sign a long-term contract?
No. SMS is pay as you go with no setup fee and no monthly charge. WhatsApp plans are billed monthly. Ask our team if you need an annual agreement or custom terms.
What is Unecast?
Unecast is Bloomwire's customer messaging platform. When you create an account or log in, you use Unecast; Bloomwire is the Sri Lankan company that runs it, registers your sender IDs and WhatsApp number, and supports you.
How long does it take to go live?
For SMS, sender ID registration typically takes 1 to 2 business days once your documents are complete, subject to operator approval. For WhatsApp, most businesses complete onboarding in 10 to 30 minutes; Meta business verification can take longer.
What do I need to start?
For SMS: your business registration document, the sender ID you want and a few sample messages. For WhatsApp: a phone number for WhatsApp (you can keep using your WhatsApp Business app number through Coexistence), access to your Facebook business account and your business documents for Meta verification.
How do I pay?
For SMS you top up your Unecast balance and pay only for the messages you send. For WhatsApp you pay a monthly Bloomwire plan, and Meta charges its per-message fees directly to the card on your WhatsApp Business account.
Is Bloomwire suitable for a small business?
Yes. Many customers start small: SMS needs no monthly fee, and you can start WhatsApp on the Starter plan with one number and one user. If you only chat with a few customers a day, the free WhatsApp Business app may be enough for now; our guide explains when to upgrade.
