Unable to ADD Indian Payment Method in Whatsapp Business API using Payment Methods (https://developers.facebook.com/)
I have read the document regarding payments and also raised the customer support ticket in Meta for Developers(Developer Support) and find the relevant question but I didn't get the proper solution on how to add Indian Payment Method.
Does anyone know anything about adding payment method in India? Any help would be appreciated.
Latest Update:
WhatsApp Business API has launched payment support in India country from 20 Oct 2022, https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/business-platform/changelog#october-20--2022
Note: Your location and currency cannot be changed once set, refer to the documentation
There is no India country on the Payment settings page, see the available countries,
First Step
But you can try selecting a random country and you will see the INR currency,
Second Step
thxs for your comment and I have a query that is if I do payment like above answer (changing the country and selecting the INR) it will create any payment issues (any legal issue) or not.
currently, I don't know, but we have set up payment method this way, I will update my answer when I get information from my organization.
Hi @turivishal , can I get any update from your commented answer because my payment method is not working fine now. Please help me
Yeah, even my is not working now, it shows payment failed, I asked the support team, and they said the payment method is not available in India, you can't use it after 1000 free messages over in a month, and they will provide support in India and other counties soon. but I wonder, we have sent 25k messages in 2 months, and still, we can able to send the messages even though it shows payment failed.

(we have sent 25k messages in 2 months, and still, we can able to send the messages even though it shows payment failed.) I'm also wonder on this. It help me a lot.
