Online Shopping Is Now Easy Using Whatsapp, Here's How

We all know with the advent of technology there are ways to improve shopping experiences, one of the major developments that comes with many more advantages is WhatsApp. It has now developed a new feature on its Business application that makes it easier for users to visit sites and buy products. Including India, many other countries like Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Germany etc have now adapted to the new ‘catalogues’ feature in WhatsApp that was recently added for a better shopping experience. The catalogue feature has already been used in seven countries and can be used by many more further. One of the major things that makes this feature more viable is its easy usability for both Android and iOS.

The WhatsApp catalogue feature was developed in 2018 to provide a communication platform for buyers and sellers using this widely used app. The catalogue includes all the descriptions of the products and makes it easy to decide what and how to buy without actually visiting the websites. The businesses add product images, prices, descriptions, product names and links which prevent the extra load for the buyers visiting the websites and saves time. Adding all the essential information on WhatsApp eliminates the extra need to visit sites and thus provides a better user experience, the buyers can directly place orders through the Facebook-owned apps.

According to WhatsApp’s blog post, ‘Catalogs is the feature embedded in WhatsApp to prevent multiple visiting of the buyers on websites. It is a mobile storefront for businesses to showcase their products and share goods so people can easily browse and discover products. Previously businesses once sent the product images and then the details separately but using the catalog feature the buyers can see all the details once and decide which product to buy.’

Since WhatsApp is widely worldwide used and has a specific place for users when it comes to communication, the invention of the catalogue feature is a go-to for all who believe and spend time on online shopping providing easy usability and less time consumption.
