What is the setup process for Viber Business Messages?

How much does it cost to send Viber Business Messages?
The answer depends on a few factors. First, there’s a country-specific minimum monthly commitment. Then, similar to SMS, there are varying country-specific prices for transactional Viber messages and promotional Viber messages.
While we can’t give you a nice round number without more context, we can tell you that our pricing system is transparent. You’ll know exactly how much you need to pay before you sign any contract.
Do customers need to opt in to receive Viber Business Messages?
Yes, customers must explicitly opt in before you can send them Viber business messages. This requirement is strictly enforced by Viber to ensure user privacy and protect against spam. Opt-in must be collected through a clear and verifiable method, such as a web form, in-app checkbox, or consent during account creation, and should include an explanation of the type of messages they’ll receive. Messente helps ensure compliance by monitoring traffic quality and supporting best practices for message consent and content.
