The most used instant chat messaging platform WhatsApp is playing to launch a privacy newsletter tool. The tool is currently in beta testing to see if it’s viable or not.
WhatsApp could provide a superior newsletter experience by offering users the ability to read all the newsletters within the instant messaging app. The open rate will go off the roof and WhatsApp can offer more sophisticated analytics to those writing those newsletters, TechCrunch states.
“In newsletters, WhatsApp can also find a way to get its users to spend even more time on the app. As WhatsApp gears up its business offerings, in newsletters it can also find a way to better serve brands,” the publication reports.
