Viber Chatbot pricing

You can create and publish your chatbot on Viber for free. Make your service available 24/7 
and provide automated replies to your customers with free session messages — or 
strike up a conversation with your subscribers, using chatbot-initiated messages.

Messages exchanged in a chatbot fall into two categories:
<p>Chatbot session messages</p>

Chatbot session messages

Message exchanged between the chatbot and its subscribers during a conversational session.

All messages exchanged between the chatbot and its subscribers during a session are completely free.
<p>Chatbot-initiated messages</p>

Chatbot-initiated messages

Message sent by the chatbot owner to its subscriber to engage in a conversation with them.

Each Viber Chatbot receives 10,000 free chatbot-initiated messages per calendar month.

As the first message your chatbot sends to a new subscriber, a welcome message is free and doesn’t count towards the monthly limit. Use it to introduce the chatbot, familiarize the user with your chatbot’s UI and features, give information, and encourage the user to interact with the chatbot.

What’s a Chatbot session?

A 24-hour Chatbot session starts whenever a subscriber messages the chatbot. After 24 hours, the session terminates automatically. The next time a subscriber messages the chatbot, a new session starts.

How can I send more than 10,000 chatbot-initiated messages per month?

To send more than 10,000/month, you will need to set up billing for your Chatbot by signing Viber’s Chatbot Commercial Terms and providing a prepayment that will act as your account’s balance. Once the billing is set up, you will be able to exceed 10,000 messages limit. Viber will bill you for the billable traffic at the end of each month to maintain your positive balance in our system.

How much does a chatbot-initiated message cost?

The rate applied to each chatbot-initiated message depends on the phone number with which the subscriber you’re messaging is registered on Viber.
