You would need to use the meta graph api

do you know about the pricing , i cannot find it anywhere or is it free to use ?
Free Tier Conversations
Each WhatsApp Business Account gets 1,000 free service conversations each month across all of its business phone numbers. This number is refreshed at the beginning of each month, based on WhatsApp Business Account time zone.
Marketing, utility and authentication conversations are not part of the free tier.@Jboncz https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/pricing/
