Use Jio Recharge or WhatsApp Payment Option.
Akash explains the ease it is going to bring to the people by talking about the old age people and the efforts it takes from them to get to the grocery store every time they need something, and it happens every day. So that can be helped by the Jio recharge feature, and now people can also pay from the WhatsApp payment option added recently.
