How does Chatfuel pricing work?

As of October 2026, Free covers comment replies with no AI credits and Business is $20/month ($18/month billed yearly) with $20 of AI credits. After that you top up a wallet, and processing stops at zero.

Does Chatfuel still have a flow builder?

Not for new accounts; its docs say buttons and quick replies aren't supported. The flow builder remains on Legacy accounts.

Will the trial charge me automatically?

No. The 14-day Creator trial needs no credit card, and when it ends you move to Free with your data intact.

Auto-replies you write word for word, not AI

New Chatfuel accounts get AI without DM buttons. Replier sends your exact DM, with link buttons, for $10/month.
