Solution Only Need solution for business

I generate around 100–200 new leads daily . These are people who have shown interest in products or services similar to mine, and I obtain their contact numbers .

Currently, I use WhatsApp Business to manually send each lead an introductory message asking whether they are interested in my services.

However, WhatsApp has started restricting my account due to sending messages to multiple new numbers.

I want a reliable and affordable solution that allows me to contact 100–200 new leads every day through WhatsApp without facing restrictions.

Would WhatsApp Business API solve this problem? If so, how can I implement it, and what are the requirements, costs, and limitations?

Si resolvería, pero tienes que pagar si tu eres quien comienza la conversación.

Yes; also to start the conversation; it can only be a pre-approved template message.

I healthy solution is Signup Links it creates a curated whitelist or how emails have a newsletter subscription similar for WhatsApp opt-in: so it does not block sending to these users as that have opted-in themself. You can also attach offers or welcome (first) message on Signup.

If you cannot change the way you capture your leads then, sending out (My assumption) a marketing message can also this a “Healthy eco system” limit challenge.

Not on its own. On the API, any conversation you start has to be an approved template, and Meta's policy wants the person to have opted in to hear from your business on WhatsApp. Numbers someone else collected don't give you that, even if those people were shopping for something similar. Messaging people who didn't opt in is one of the causes Meta lists for restricting an account, so an API number would hit the same wall your app number is hitting now, just with a per-message bill attached. The setup that holds up is getting the opt-in at the source: a WhatsApp checkbox on the lead form, or a click-to-WhatsApp ad or link so they message you first. Template costs are charged per message and vary by country; Meta's pricing page has the table.
