WhatsApp Pay Becomes Available For All Users In India

By Krishna SinhaChaudhury

NPCI has lifted the previously imposed cap on WhatsApp Pay users.

In a big move for India’s digital payment ecosystem, Meta-owned WhatsApp Pay has received approval to offer its UPI-based payment services to all users across India. This marks the end of previous restrictions that limited the service to 100 million users over the past two years.
