Instagram Chat Payment: A New Way to Shop and Sell

Instagram has launched a new feature called Chat Payment, which allows businesses to accept payments directly in their Direct Messages. This is a convenient and seamless way for customers to shop and pay, without having to leave the Instagram app.
