Based on an official announcement by Dhaka Tribune.
Viber, the global messaging and communications platform, has launched a payments service under the leadership of CEO Ofir Eyal, marking the company's expansion into the super app category. The new payments feature enables users to conduct financial transactions directly through the Viber platform, integrating financial services with its existing messaging capabilities.
The payments service launch represents a strategic move to enhance Viber's ecosystem and provide users with a more comprehensive digital platform. By combining messaging, voice, and video communication with financial transaction capabilities, Viber aims to compete in the increasingly crowded super app market, where platforms offer multiple services within a single application.
This development reflects broader industry trends toward convergence, where technology companies expand beyond their core offerings to provide users with integrated solutions. The payments service is expected to strengthen user engagement and create additional revenue streams for the platform. The initiative underscores CEO Ofir Eyal's vision for Viber's future as a comprehensive digital service provider catering to diverse user needs.
