Three currencies meet in a WhatsApp CRM, and they are set in three different places. The one your workspace shows amounts in is a setting you control. The one you pay the subscription in follows your billing details. The one Meta bills message charges in is set by Meta. This page says where each one lives and what changing it does.

The display currency

Settings, then General, has a Currency field. It decides how money is shown everywhere in the app: deal values on leads and the pipeline board, revenue figures in analytics, the cost estimate before a broadcast or a flow send, payment requests, and the figures in notifications and emails. It also decides which currency a new amount is entered in.

  • A workspace created on or after 22 October 2026 starts on the currency of the country it signed up from: rupees for India, the national currency where the app supports it (US dollars, euros, pounds, dirhams, riyals, Indonesian rupiah, Brazilian reais, Mexican pesos, Singapore, Australian and Canadian dollars, Turkish lira, Pakistani rupees, naira, rand), and US dollars for any other country.
  • A workspace created before that date started on Indian rupees whatever its country. If yours did, change the field once; it takes effect immediately.
  • Changing it converts nothing. Amounts already recorded keep the currency they were recorded in: a lead's deal value keeps the currency chosen when it was entered, a revenue entry keeps its own, and a payment request keeps the currency it was raised in. New amounts use the new setting.

The time zone next to it works the same way and is covered in plans, limits and billing.

The billing currency

What you pay VGraple CRM in is decided by the Billing details card under Settings, then Billing, and not by the display currency.

Your business isYou pay inTaxThrough
In IndiaIndian rupees18 percent GST on top, with a GST tax invoiceCashfree: UPI, netbanking or card
Anywhere elseUS dollarsNo GST (a zero-rated export)Stripe: card

The prices on the pricing page are shown in both. The choice is fixed after your first payment; a business that moves country afterwards changes it through Support so the invoices stay right. AI credit packs follow the same rule as the subscription.

Meta's currency

Meta bills message charges to you directly, through your WhatsApp Business Account's payment method, in the currency of your Meta billing account. VGraple CRM does not collect them and adds nothing to Meta's rates; see platform fee versus Meta message charges. Meta publishes its rates per market, and the pricing by country pages carry them.

The cost estimate you see before a send is worked out from Meta's published rate for the market you are sending to and shown in your display currency, so it reads alongside your other figures. It is an estimate. Meta's invoice is the bill, and the Charged figure on a finished broadcast is what Meta reported for it.

Troubleshooting

SymptomLikely causeFix
Figures show a rupee sign but the business is elsewhereThe workspace was created before 22 October 2026 and kept the old defaultSettings, General, Currency: pick yours. Nothing is converted
A lead shows a different currency from the rest of the boardIts deal value was entered before the currency was changed, or with a different currency chosen on the leadEdit the lead and re-enter the value in the currency you want
The invoice is in US dollars but the business is in IndiaThe billing details say the business is outside IndiaContact Support from the app; the currency is fixed after the first payment and a correction is made by hand
The cost estimate and Meta's invoice differThe estimate uses Meta's published rate in your display currency; Meta bills in its own currency at the rate on the day, and only for delivered messagesTreat the estimate as a guide and Meta's invoice as the bill

The plans and what each costs are in plans, limits and billing. The two bills behind WhatsApp messaging are explained in platform fee versus Meta message charges, and how AI credits work covers credit packs.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my workspace show amounts in Indian rupees when my business is not in India?
Workspaces created before 22 October 2026 started on Indian rupees whatever country they signed up from. Change it under Settings, then General, in the Currency field; it takes effect at once. A workspace created after that date starts on the currency of the country it signed up from.
Does changing the display currency convert my existing figures?
No. The setting decides how amounts are shown and which currency new amounts are entered in. Nothing is converted. A lead's deal value keeps the currency chosen when it was entered, and a recorded revenue figure keeps the currency it was recorded in.
Can I pay the subscription in a currency other than rupees or US dollars?
No. A business in India pays in Indian rupees, with GST, through Cashfree. A business anywhere else pays in US dollars, with no GST, by card through Stripe. The choice follows the billing details you save and is fixed after the first payment.
Are Meta's message charges included in the VGraple CRM price?
No. VGraple CRM is a Meta Tech Provider: the WhatsApp Business Account is yours and Meta bills message charges to you directly, in the currency of your Meta billing account. VGraple CRM adds nothing to Meta's rates.
Why do cost estimates in the app show a figure in my currency when Meta bills me in another?
The estimate before a send is worked out from Meta's published rate for the market you send to and shown in your display currency so it reads alongside your other figures. Meta's own invoice is the bill.
What are AI credits priced in?
AI credits are a count, not money. A credit pack is priced in Indian rupees for a business in India and in US dollars elsewhere, the same rule as the subscription.
