Looking to send whatsapp message from my service

I have created a service in node and wanted to invoke the WA API to send messages to the user. Since the volume is really low (2 messages/month) I was wondering if there is a way to accomplish this task from any free APIs available. I researched using Meta’s WA api directly but when I am trying to take the App Live it is asking for business use case and stuff where the registered business should have a website and all hence hit a blocker.

Wanted to know if their is any free API alternative available.

Do let me know if you have come across a use case and/or applied something.

Thanks in advance.

You can use something like this

https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=number

No free APIs. You can use third party vendor APIs like zoko, gupshup etc. but they're all paid. Apart from this there's a twilio where you can set up some demo accounts and use them for free for some time, but again it'll be one of their testing numbers.

Automating WhatsApp messages

Has anyone found a way or knows a tool that can send promotional messages over WhatsApp without using the WhatsApp API?

Any leads / workaround would be helpful.
