How many phone numbers can I connect under one BAN?

⚡Quick answer -

The number of phone numbers you can connect under one MyOperator BAN depends on your account-verification status and Meta’s global phone-number limits.

When to use this guide?

  • Centralised billing: One BAN simplifies billing across all connected numbers and accounts.
  • Scalability: Easily expand into new regions or teams without opening separate business entities.
  • Flexibility: Manage multiple WABAs for different brands, regions, or service lines under one FBM.
  • Control: Each number maintains its own messaging tier and approval process, giving granular scaling.

FBM–BAN relationship

One BAN is tied to one Facebook Business Manager (FBM).
A single FBM can manage multiple WABAs, all connected under the same BAN.

Messaging tiers per number

Each phone number has its own messaging limits (tiers) that scale independently


What Meta officially allows (phone-number limits)

  • By default, when you first register, a business portfolio is limited to 2 registered WhatsApp business phone numbers.
  • Once your Business Manager account is verified, Meta typically allows up to 20 phone numbers to be registered under the same Business Manager / WABA account (multiple WABA account can be created under 1 BAN).
  • If you need more than 20 — it may be possible to request an increase from Meta, especially for high-volume businesses, though approval is discretionary.

Therefore — under normal circumstances — a single business account under MyOperator should support up to 20 phone numbers.
