Chennai, March 21, 2021: Continuing with its focus on digital first experience, Vi has introduced another industry first service for its customers enabling them to conveniently do their recharges and pay bills anywhere, anytime. Vi customers can now enjoy on the spot seamless payments and recharges through its AI powered Virtual Agent VIC on its Digital Assets and also on WhatsApp.

Vi postpaid and prepaid customers can now avail this personalised digital payments service which works across all payment gateways / UPI. Vi prepaid customers can recharge with any prepaid pack instantly in just two clicks from the Virtual Agent VIC, including WhatsApp.

This initiative is in line with Vi’s intent to make its customer’s life simpler, faster and provide a personalized user experience on digital payments.
