Introduces WhatsApp Payments facility for American users

What is WhatsApp payment feature?

WhatsApp payment feature is already available for India and Brazil. Accordingly, users will be able to make money transactions very easily through WhatsApp. This WhatsApp Payments feature is powered by Meta's Digital Wallet Novi integration.

Who is the first reporter? 

David Marcus first reported on the feature on Twitter, and later WABetaInfo went on to bring a comprehensive report on it.

Unlike previous transactions in Indian Rupees on UPI, American users now have the ability to transact in Pax Dollars (USPD) with Novi Integration through this WhatsApp Payments facility.

Is there a limit? 

It is possible to transact money through this without spending any extra money and there is no limit to the number of times you can transact money through bank accounts. If you are a WhatsApp Beta user in the US, it is already possible to setup this WhatsApp Payments service for your WhatsApp account as well. You can use the WhatsApp Payments web page to study about it.

How to send money via WhatsApp?

WhatsApp Beta users will be able to access this feature via Android 2.21.17 Beta version, and WhatsApp is working to bring a beta version of this feature to iOS users soon.
