Whatsapp UPI Transaction Facility
After Google's Tez, Patym BHIM, and Phone Pe UPI facilities, now its time for the Whatsapp to bring UPI transaction feature to support Digital India Movement. Whatsapp has reportedly started testing out its UPI-based payments feature in India. The new feature is available for selected WhatsApp beta users on iOS and Android. It enables users to send and receive money using the Indian government's Unified Payments Interface (UPI) standard. This feature is available on WhatsApp version 2.18.21 for iOS, and version 2.18.41 for Android. The option is said to be available in attachment menu with other options such as Gallery, Video, Documents etc.
Clicking on Payments will open a disclaimer window, followed by a list of banks to choose from.You can then select your preferred bank account to connect with UPI. You will be asked to create an authentication pin if you haven't yet used the UPI payments platform. Additionally, you will have to create a UPI account (if you don't have one previously) through the UPI app or your respective bank's website/ app.
