WhatsApp UPI-based payments spotted on Android, iOS beta Report,
WhatsApp with UPI-based payments activated has been spotted on Android and iOS beta versions of the app, according to reports. GizmoTimes reported about the WhatsApp UPI-based payments, while another report on FoneArena highlights the versions where the feature appears to be live. It also looks like the UPI-based payment feature has been rolled out to select WhatsApp users for now. We were unable to spot the feature on the beta version of WhatsApp on our Android phones.

According to reports, iOS beta version v2.18.21 has the UPI-based payment option, while WhatsApp Android running version v2.18.41 has this option reflecting for some users. The option for UPI-based payments shows up in the attachments segment next to Documents, Gallery, Audio, Location, Contact, etc. Based on the screenshots share it looks like once a user taps on Payment, the app will show a list of supported banks. UPI, which stands for United Payments Interface, relies on direct transfers from the bank. A user needs to input their account details, UPI pin for authorising every transaction on the platform.

The GizmoTimes report also adds they were unable to add the bank account to the WhatsApp account for carrying out any transaction. The reason could be that the feature is not yet full supported and WhatsApp is still completing the integration. WhatsApp has been working on UPI payments since last year as it was reported by many publications.
