Why Saudi businesses choose LandinChat
Pricing questions from Saudi buyers
Does Meta charge me directly or does LandinChat bill it?
LandinChat invoices the Meta conversation fees together with your plan, in SAR. You get one consolidated invoice — no separate Meta billing relationship needed.
Why is marketing more expensive than utility in Saudi Arabia?
Meta tiers conversations by intent. Marketing (promotions, offers) commands the highest rate because it's outbound revenue-driving. Utility messages (order updates, receipts) are cheaper because they're customer-initiated workflows. Authentication (OTP, 2FA) sits in between.
Are service-window messages really free in Saudi Arabia?
Yes. Once a customer messages you, you have a rolling 24-hour service window to reply with unlimited free-form messages at no per-message cost. This is identical across every market including Saudi Arabia.
Are you Saudi PDPL-compliant?
Yes — consent management, data subject rights workflows and processor agreement aligned with SDAIA's PDPL.
Do you support Mada and STC Pay?
Yes, via our Saudi payments partner — in-chat checkout links accept Mada, STC Pay, Apple Pay, Tabby and Tamara.
