Upon installing the latest version 2.24.7.3, WhatsApp users gain access to a new feature aimed at enhancing online payments: a Unified Payment Interface (UPI) QR code scanner integrated into their chat lists.

Previous speculations about this feature’s development aimed to enhance user accessibility and convenience in sharing QR codes with others prior to this update, albeit its functionality has been altered.

Meta instant messaging app users now experience enhanced ease in securely sending and receiving money, courtesy of a new feature enabling swift scanning of any UPI QR code directly from chat lists.

As per WABetaInfo.com, users are no longer required to navigate through multiple screens or follow numerous steps to initiate payments, all thanks to the integration of the UPI QR code scanning feature directly within the chats list.

Additionally, it was noted that this enhancement significantly enhances the overall user experience, streamlining the scanning process and saving valuable time.

Beta testers who install the latest WhatsApp beta updates for Android from the Google Play Store can now access the QR code scanning feature, with more testers set to be included over the next day.
