We have used Whatsapp Business for servicing our customers but we really wanted to drive transactions on Whatsapp. Our new product “Buy Two-wheeler Insurance on Whatsapp” is the first such solution in India to drive transaction of financial services such as insurance on Whatsapp. At the cost of repeating myself, I will say that the likes of Pinduoduo Inc (NASDAQ listed with ~ USD 28 billion market cap), have shown the power of commerce on chat platforms.
