WhatsApp Pay RIP Paytm, say Twitterati
Twitterati on Monday went berserk after the news of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg actively working on to launch WhatsApp Pay in India and how it can hamper Paytm’s future plans spread like a wildfire.
IANS on Sunday reported, quoting industry analysts, that WhatsApp Pay is going to be the real game changer in the burgeoning Indian digital payments industry, likely to hit the $1-trillion mark by 2023.
“Paytm was most excited when demonitisation was announced and that digital will make India. Just 2 years down the line Paytm is facing extinction,” tweeted Joseph Oommen.
