Telugu Super News,India, January 27th, 2023: WhatsApp is one of the most loved private messaging apps globally and its popularity is a testament to how it consistently delivers the best user experience, making private messaging simple, safe and accessible to all. WhatsApp has pioneered numerous innovative product features that take the privacy and security of users’ communication to the next level and anticipate user needs even before they arise, a key differentiating factor from other messaging apps. Founded on the belief that private communication is a universal right, WhatsApp over the years, has been focused on consistently adding new layers of protection to safeguard its users from all privacy and security concerns.

Since privacy is synonymous with safety in today’s digitally connected world, here’s how WhatsApp is spearheading safe and private messaging for users in India and worldwide:

Privacy and confidentiality assured: With end-to-end encryption built in to WhatsApp, users can rest assured that messages, photos, videos, voice messages, documents, status updates and calls are secured between the sender and the receiver and nobody in between, not even WhatsApp can read or listen to what is sent. Additionally, users can add the same layer of end-to-end encryption to protect their chat backups on iCloud or Google Drive, securing all messages and media in the cloud by a password or a 64-digit encryption key.
No Remnants of ‘View Once’ messages: View Once has emerged as a convenient and trendy way to share photos and videos without leaving a permanent digital record. WhatsApp View Once messages are going to be automatically protected with screenshot blocking, so users can have greater confidence sharing sensitive messages that won’t be seen or kept longer than intended. This way, WhatsApp prevents screenshots from being captured, as opposed to some other apps that alert users after a screenshot has been taken.
Control over your ‘online’ presence: Even if being aware of users’ loved ones’ online presence lets them feel connected to them, there are moments when everyone wishes they could check their WhatsApp privately. WhatsApp allows users to choose who can and cannot see that they are online for those moments when they wish to keep their online presence private.
Sharing important information without chat backlog: Disappearing messages is an optional feature you can turn on for more privacy. Users can arrange messages to disappear for 24 hours, 7 days, or 90 days after they are sent when they enable disappearing messages. Users can decide whether to enable disappearing messages for all of their chats or just a few of them.
Dealing with unwanted chats and spam: Unlike traditional SMS, WhatsApp provides a simple way for users to block accounts and make reports to WhatsApp if they encounter problematic messages. In addition to this, WhatsApp allows people to keep reported messages on their phones if they want to share them with fact-checkers or law enforcement officials.
Safeguarding account access: WhatsApp’s Two Step Verification feature offers users an extra layer of security to their WhatsApp account and protects their account in the event of their SIM card being stolen or their phone being compromised by scammers who may try to use their phone number.

Experience UPI Payments on WhatsApp in 4 easy steps

Whether shopping groceries from your local kirana stores, or sending and receiving
payments from your friends and family, Unified Payments Interface (UPI) has made it
extremely convenient to pay digitally. What is even more convenient is the option of
combining the power of messaging and payments on the same platform. WhatsApp does
exactly that; it offers the best of both worlds on its platform. On WhatsApp, transferring
money is as easy as sending a message, allowing users to seamlessly make UPI-based
payments in one convenient place – in their chats! All you need to do is tap the ‘₹’ icon while
chatting with a contact or scan a QR code across more than 20 million QR-code-enabled
stores in India to initiate a UPI payment.

If you are yet to experience this perfect combination, here is how you can set up payments on
WhatsApp in a few simple steps from the familiar chat interface window

Step 1: Add your bank account: To add your bank account you will need an active account at an
Indian bank that supports UPI. The primary phone number associated with this bank account must match the phone number of your WhatsApp account.

Open a chat with the person you want to send money to > tap the Payments icon.
Alternatively, you can tap Attach > Payment.
Enter the rupee amount you’d like to send > tap Next > tap Get Started.
Tap Accept and Continue to accept our Payments Terms and Privacy Policy.
From the list of banks, tap the name of your bank.
Tap Verify via SMS > Allow. If WhatsApp already has permission to make and
manage phone calls, you won’t need to grant permission.
Tap the bank account you want to add to send and receive payments with
WhatsApp.
To verify your debit card, tap Continue
Verify your debit card details > tap Verify Card.

Step 2: Send money: Once you’ve added your bank account to WhatsApp, you can send
money to any contact.

Open a chat with the contact you want to send money to.
Tap the ‘₹’ symbol (Payments icon)
Enter the rupee amount you’d like to send > tap Next > Send Payment.

Step 3: Verify the payment by entering your UPI PIN: You will be asked to confirm your UPI PIN
before sending a payment. If you haven’t set up a UPI PIN yet, you’ll be asked to do so by
verifying the last 6 digits of your debit card and the expiration date.

Step 4: Confirm the status of your payment: To know whether your payment was successful, all
you need to do is check the status of your transfer in the chat or view past transactions in the
payments settings.
WhatsApp also offers a host of stickers and backgrounds to personalise the payments
experience on the platform. These stickers and backgrounds can be selected by tapping the
‘Sticker’ icon in the chat composer.
