WhatsApp Official Tier Limits
Those who are using WhatsApp Official channel need to ensure that they are selecting contacts or uploading contacts as per their 24 hours rolling limit
By default all WhatsApp Official sending limit is 1000 contacts in 24 hours and this limit get resets in 24 hours against each contact
You can send any number of messages to the contact during this period , restriction is only for unique contacts whom you can send messages in 24 hours
This is applicable only for sending template messages, if you have 24 hours contactable session then there are no restriction to send free hand messages to those contacts.
Suppose if you have 2000 contacts who are in 24 hours contactable window and your are in Tier 1 i.e 1000 contacts (template messages) in 24 hours period then our system will not accept more than 3000 contacts to send and you will get an error while trying to send messages.
Still there are chances messages getting failed due to the Tier Limits and the same will be marked as "Failed" with the reason under you Broadcaster -> Reports
