In its blog post, WhatsApp also said that it is expanding the ability to make payment from a chat with their credit or debit card in Brazil as well. The feature was recently launched for WhatsApp users in India.
Meanwhile, the instant messaging app now allows its beta users to connect their accounts with another handset and an Android tablet. According to a report by GSM Arena, WhatsApp has a new buddy mode that helps users to enable and attach a secondary smartphone to their primary account. This has been included in the most recent WhatsApp beta for Android version 2.22.24.18, the report adds.
