Q: Just some newbie questions...
Hey this looks great, but I am wondering....
1. How is this the "World's 1st "meta" Compliant Cold WhatsApp outreaching tool"... can you explain this? Like, why arent others compliant? What does compliance do for the project? WHy are you special?
2. What are the extra costs? I see some questions asking about extra costs 20% or 5% of meta's costs... I dnt understand. What are they reffering to? Is there ongoing costs to use this service?
3. How does a whatsapp account not get banned doing this? Should we be using our own accounts or do you recommend getting more WA accounts for myself (just a low budget side hustle for now). Is there anything you recommend for me to get started with Lancepilot?
Thanks so much!

1. We’re the first to offer a WhatsApp cold outreach tool! Our features are built to meet industry standards for cold outreach, similar to what cold email software offers. That’s what makes us unique and special.
2. In addition to the deal, you’ll need to cover Meta’s conversation charges for sending template messages. Incoming messages are free. We apply a 20% markup on these charges, but if you’re on tier 4, you’ll get a 5% discount (so only 15% markup).
You can use our cost calculator to estimate your charges: [Cost Calculator](https://lancepilot.com/cost-calculator) (this includes the 20% markup).
I recommend watching our full live demo video to get a better idea of how the platform works: [Live Demo](https://youtu.be/AEh8Rq__6B8).
3. Meta may ban unverified accounts, so to keep your account safe, our customers follow best practices. If you need help with this, reach out to us via live support.
Note: To use our WhatsApp API, you’ll need a new phone number that isn’t already linked to WhatsApp and a Facebook account.
For step-by-step setup instructions, check out this video: [Setup Video](https://youtu.be/Kz0QTc_YXfE).
Let me know if you have more questions! Thanks!
Thankyou, I understand this much better now!
