How to increase the WhatsApp Broadcast Limit?
The WhatsApp Broadcast Limit (also called Messaging Limit) defines how many unique users your business can message in a 24-hour period. Meta automatically reviews accounts and promotes them to higher tiers when requirements are met—no manual request is needed.
✅ Requirements to Upgrade Your Broadcast Tier
You will be automatically promoted if:
- Quality Rating is Medium or High (not Low).
- You’ve sent messages to at least 50% of your current tier limit within 7 days.
⚠️ Meta checks eligibility daily, so upgrades can happen as early as the next day.
📊 Tier Upgrade Examples
Current Tier | Daily Limit | Upgrade Trigger | Next Tier | New Limit |
Tier 1 | 1,000 users | 500 users in 7 days | Tier 2 | 10,000 users |
Tier 2 | 10,000 users | 5,000 users in 7 days | Tier 3 | 100,000 users |
Tier 3 | 100,000 users | 50,000 users in 7 days | Tier 4 | Unlimited |
📌 Example: If you’re in Tier 1 and message 500 unique users on Day 1, your account may be upgraded to Tier 2 (10,000 limit) as early as Day 2, provided your quality rating is Medium or High.
🧭 Where to Check Your Tier and Quality Rating
- Log in to WhatsApp Business Manager.
- Navigate to Account > Phone Numbers.
- View your Messaging Limit and Quality Rating.

⚠️ What Can Delay a Tier Upgrade?
- A Low quality rating (often caused by poor opt-ins, irrelevant messages, or spam-like content).
- Failing to reach 50% of your current tier limit within 7 days.
- High opt-out or complaint rates from recipients.
💡 Best Practice: Use clear opt-ins, personalize campaigns, and send high-value content to maintain High quality.
