Millions of WhatsApp users in India can now start sending money to reach other. The Facebook-owned messaging app has rolled out a beta version of the new feature which allows peer-to-peer payments.
According to top sources close to the development, WhatsApp has partnered with some brands for the payment facility. The payment feature is based on the UPI platform. To use the feature , as of now, a user will have to get an invite from someone who already has the payment facility. Once you get the invite, the user can activate the payment feature through the app settings.
The company is expected to make an official post later today.
