The first year was free, and then an annual fee of €0.89 was charged. In 2016, the subscription was eliminated. But the <strong>paid plan could return to avoid the ads that Meta wants to include in Status and Channels.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This would be the first change to the instant messaging application in Spain in ten years. In this regard, it is known that <strong>&#8220;the ads will not appear within private chats,</strong> which will continue to be end-to-end encrypted, <strong>but in the more social spaces of the platform, similar to Instagram Stories or broadcast channels.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In order to align with European regulations, &#8220;Meta will enable an alternative: a monthly subscription that will allow the use of WhatsApp without ads in Status and Channels.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This option has already been detected in <strong>WhatsApp beta version 2.26.3.9 for Android, </strong>according to reports from specialized media outlets such as <em>WaBetaInfo</em>, which indicates <strong>a first phase of the subscription in the European Union and the United Kingdom. The fee would be around €4 per month.</strong></p>
