Why this page is different

«فمّا مقاس L؟ c’est combien؟» is an ordinary Tunisian message in two languages — and the order after it is paid on delivery most of the time.

A Tunisian customer writes «فمّا مقاس L؟» and carries on in French, and pays on delivery for most orders. The agent understands Tunisian and French in one sentence and answers in the style you choose, and confirms the order, the governorate and the amount in dinars before dispatch.

The WhatsApp Cloud API does not restrict a number's country. The two real conditions are that the number is not active on the WhatsApp app when you register it, and that you hold a Meta Business Manager account. The detail is in our Cloud API explainer.

And you run all of it from your phoneEverything on this page is also run from the ArabyBot mobile app — replies, orders, campaigns and AI reports. Not a web dashboard only.

How the market works in Tunisia

In Tunisia selling starts on Facebook and Messenger, then TikTok and Instagram; cash on delivery covers most online orders while wallets such as D17, Flouci and Konnect grow. About half of Tunisians speak French, widely used in business, so customers mix Tunisian and French in one message.

A conversation as it runs in Tunisia

An illustration written in Tunisian Arabic mixed with French, the way a customer there writes and the agent answers — not a real customer's conversation.

Your store on WhatsApp

Do you have size L? How much is it?

Yes, there is L — it is 89 dinars, cash on delivery or by D17. Shall we send it?

OK, Sfax

Great, send your name, number and address in Sfax and we confirm the order.

And the mistake to avoid

Before you start in Tunisia

A bot that answers only in Standard Arabic to a message that is half French, so the customer asks again or leaves. The agent understands both and replies in the style you set, and the confirmation before dispatch names the governorate and the amount in dinars.

By your sector

The problem changes completely with what you do — a clinic books appointments and is forbidden from giving medical advice, a store checks live stock and confirms an order.

Frequently asked

Does the bot understand Tunisian Arabic and French?

The agent understands «قدّاش؟», «فمّا؟» and French in one sentence, and answers in the style the merchant sets: Standard Arabic, close to Tunisian, or French if you ask for it in its instructions. On WhatsApp it reads the +216 code and knows the customer is in Tunisia.

What does a WhatsApp API message to a Tunisian number cost?

A utility or authentication message to a Tunisian number is $0.0040 (about 0.01 TND), and a marketing message $0.0225, both from Meta's official card effective 1 October 2026. The price follows the recipient's dialling code, not the merchant's country; replying to whoever wrote first is free for the first 1,000 replies per number each month, then billed at the utility rate. Meta's fees are paid to Meta on your own account, with no markup from us.

How do I pay the subscription from Tunisia?

Prices are shown to a visitor from Tunisia in US dollars and paid by international bank card (Visa or Mastercard). If you have no card that pays in dollars, message us before subscribing and pay nothing until we agree on a way. Meta's WhatsApp fees are separate from the subscription and need a payment method Meta accepts on your own Meta account.
