Though WhatsApp’s financial statements aren’t public (Facebook doesn’t break down its revenue by the company), Forbes estimated total revenue to be $5 billion and the average revenue per user to be $4 by 2020. As of February 2018, WhatsApp had over 1.5 billion users and 60 billion messages sent per day, according to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg in a Q4 2017 conference call.
Whether you believe that Facebook overpaid for WhatsApp or not, the fact is that the WhatsApp has a growing revenue stream with more room to grow.
