Jio Launches Free JioSoundPay Feature for JioBharat Phones
Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd (Jio) has introduced a 'free for life' sound-pay feature, called JioSoundPay, for its JioBharat device. This initiative is expected to benefit approximately five crore small-scale merchants across India. JioSoundPay provides instant, multilingual audio confirmations for every UPI payment received, eliminating the need for a traditional sound box. This feature aims to enable seamless and efficient business operations for even the smallest kirana stores, vegetable vendors, and roadside eateries.
Currently, small and micro merchants typically pay around ₹125 per month for a sound box. With JioSoundPay being provided free to JioBharat users, they will save approximately ₹1,500 annually. This move is expected to significantly impact companies like PayTm, which has the largest installation of sound boxes across the country.
The new feature will debut with a contemporary version of Vande Mataram on this Republic Day.
“Jio believes in leveraging technology to empower every Indian,” said Sunil Dutt, President, Jio.
