WhatsApp launches in-app sticker packs for payments

WhatsApp has launched a new series of stickers to add to the visual appeal while sending payments on its app. The company has collaborated with five female Indian artists to release the new illustrations, which are built on various cultural expressions related to money exchange.

The sticker packs have been exclusively designed for Indian users. The company says that these stickers will enable users to translate expressions of love, care, gratitude, blessing and joy into fun animated illustrations.

“We believe that there’s a story behind every payment. Our aim is to onboard the next 500mn to the digital payments ecosystem and drive financial inclusion at scale.
