Migration guides

Switch your WhatsApp number to BotPulsar without losing it

Your WhatsApp Business Account and phone number live in your own Meta Business Manager — not inside your current vendor. Migrating is a re-point, not a renegotiation.

Migrating to BotPulsar from any WhatsApp API provider takes three to five working days and free migration assistance is included on every plan. The number and WABA stay yours throughout — you connect through Meta Embedded Signup, approved templates carry over automatically, contacts import by CSV, and BotPulsar's team helps rebuild automations before you cut over.

Migrate from WATI

One of India's best-known WhatsApp API platforms, with a solid shared inbox and chatbot builder. Pricing is seat-based, so cost climbs every time you add an agent, and the cheapest plan is more than double BotPulsar Growth.

  • WATI from ₹2,199/mo
  • Free migration assistance

Migrate from AiSensy

A popular India-first platform with fast onboarding and native INR billing. Broadcast tooling is strong, but agent seats and the deeper AI/CRM layers are gated behind higher tiers.

  • AiSensy from ₹1,500/mo
  • Free migration assistance

Migrate from Interakt

Closest to BotPulsar on commercial model — unlimited users and no markup on Meta's message rates. The gap is product depth: AI agents, visual workflows, omnichannel and enterprise governance.

  • Interakt from ₹1,166/mo
  • Free migration assistance

Migrate from Respond.io

A capable global omnichannel platform, priced for global teams. Billing is in USD, seats are metered, and Monthly Active Contacts add usage cost on top of the subscription.

  • Respond.io from $79/mo (~₹6,950)
  • Free migration assistance

Migrate from Kommo

A messaging-first CRM with a good Salesbot builder. The per-user model is the problem for Indian teams: a 5-agent team pays around ₹11,000/month before Meta's conversation charges.

  • Kommo from $25/user/mo (~₹2,200)
  • Free migration assistance

Migrate from Gallabox

A capable no-code chatbot builder with commerce features, but every tier hard-caps users and charges per additional agent — Basic alone is triple BotPulsar Growth's price for fewer users.

  • Gallabox from ₹2,999/mo
  • Free migration assistance

Migrate from DoubleTick

A broadcast- and catalog-focused platform aimed at D2C sellers. The advertised rate only applies on annual billing, and 18% GST is added on top of every plan.

  • DoubleTick from ₹3,000/mo
  • Free migration assistance

Migrate from Zoko

A Shopify-centric WhatsApp commerce tool billed in USD. Starter looks simple but marks up every conversation; the markup-free tiers start much higher, at $79.99/month.

  • Zoko from $49.99/mo (~₹4,400)
  • Free migration assistance

Migrate from Gupshup

A large CPaaS provider (SMS, RCS, voice and WhatsApp) built for enterprises and developers wiring the API directly. There's no built-in shared inbox, chatbot builder or CRM — teams need to build or buy that layer separately.

  • Gupshup from ₹0 platform fee (pay-as-you-go)
  • Free migration assistance
The timeline

What a migration actually looks like

Day 1

Connect your number

Run Meta Embedded Signup inside BotPulsar. Your WhatsApp Business Account and phone number are registered to your own Meta Business Manager, not held inside the old vendor's infrastructure, so this is a re-point, not a renegotiation. Existing chats keep their history on WhatsApp's side.

Day 1–2

Bring your templates across

Approved message templates live on your WABA, so they carry over automatically once the number is connected — BotPulsar re-syncs each template's approval status and quality rating on connect. Anything still pending review with the old vendor stays pending until Meta finishes reviewing it, regardless of which platform you're on.

Day 2–3

Import contacts and consent state

CSV import carries over tags, custom fields, owners and opt-in status, with de-duplication on the way in. If your old platform supports a contacts export, this step is usually the fastest part of the whole migration.

Day 3–5

Rebuild automations and campaigns

Chatbot flows and campaign logic don't transfer as files between vendors, so this is the one manual step. BotPulsar's team maps your existing flows into the visual workflow builder with you — migration assistance is free on every plan, including Starter Forever.

Go-live

Cut over and decommission the old plan

Once templates, contacts and automations are verified, switch your team over and cancel the old subscription. Because the number and WABA were always yours, there's no downtime window where the number is unreachable on WhatsApp.
