Paytm’s golden gift
Digital payment platform Paytm has started a very interesting scheme for its users, in which they will now get a chance to earn gold on transactions done through the app. Paytm’s owner company One97 Communications announced on Thursday that now its loyalty points can be converted into digital gold. Along with this, the company has also launched a new version of its travel platform, which includes a smart AI assistant.
Now you will get ‘golden’ reward on every payment
Paytm founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma said that now P2P (person to person) and UPI payments made on Paytm have become ‘golden’. That is, every time a user sends money or makes a payment through the app, he will get a reward in the form of gold points. These points can later be converted into digital gold.
Vijay Shekhar Sharma said, ‘Every payment on Paytm is now a way to earn gold. No other app offers this level of rewards. We have kept it very simple and clear, and there is no limit on how much gold you can earn.
Gold conversion will start from Rs 15
The company said that users will be able to convert their points into gold when their value reaches Rs 15. That is, as the user makes payments or purchases, gold points will be added to his account, which can be redeemed later.
Paytm Senior Vice President Yugal Tiwari said that for every Rs 100 spent, the user will get one gold point. If payment is made through RuPay card, the points will be double. 100 gold coins can be redeemed as digital gold worth Re 1.
The magic of AI also came in travel app
Paytm has also given a completely new look to its travel platform. Now an AI assistant has been added to it, which will help passengers in ticket booking and travel planning through easy conversation. Users can search destinations, get travel ideas, book flight, train, bus or metro tickets and create complete travel plans just by talking. The company says that this new feature is in the beta version of AI and will give users a smooth and smart travel experience from planning to payment.
