WhatsApp Introduces New Feature That Allows Users To Make Payments
The social media app, which has more than two billion users worldwide, disclosed the new development in a blog post on Monday.
It added that users in Brazil would be the first to be able to send and receive money through the Facebook-owned platform.
“We’re excited to announce that starting today we’re bringing digital payments to WhatsApp users in Brazil. People will be able to send money securely or make a purchase from a local business without leaving their chat,” it said.
It is understood that users will need to link a credit or debit card to their WhatsApp account and also have to enter a six-digit pin or use fingerprint to complete transactions.
“Sending money or making a purchase on WhatsApp is free for people. Businesses will pay a processing fee to receive customer payments, similar to what they may already pay when accepting a credit card transaction,” it added.
“Payments on WhatsApp are beginning to roll out to people across Brazil beginning today and we look forward to bringing it to everyone as we go forward.”
The development comes about two years after the Facebook-owned services first tested the digital payments feature in India.
