Called Facebook Pay, the function intends to make free transactions between individuals. However, in the case of entrepreneurs using WhatsApp Business, there will be a flat fee of 3,99% per transaction. In addition, the platform also reported that companies interested in receiving their payments through the app must have a Cielo account, both credit and debit. With this registration, it will also be possible to make a refund and request technical support.  

WhatsApp payment aims to help entrepreneurs adapt to the digital economy

Much of Brazil's economy is due to the initiatives of millions of micro and small businesses. After all, they employ the majority of Brazilians and offer countless practicalities for our daily lives. Based on this scenario, the platform's director of operations said, through a note, that the novelty should help entrepreneurs adapt to the digital economy, in addition to supporting growth and financial recovery.

On the other side of the coin, there is also the consumer who will be much more practical to settle their payments, since they will have everything on a single platform, just register their own debit card in the application, create a numerical password of six digits and inform name and CPF.

The function, which should also reach other platforms, such as Facebook itself, should start working on WhatsApp in the coming weeks. With that, we just need to follow how the implementation will be and the real pros and cons of this update, which has a lot to offer.
