The Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation (MMRC) has launched a WhatsApp-based ticketing system for Mumbai Metro Line-3 commuters. The new service allows passengers to purchase metro tickets directly via WhatsApp, without the need for downloading a separate app.
The feature is powered by PeLocal Fintech Pvt. Ltd., and can be accessed by sending “Hi” to +91 98730 16836 or by scanning QR codes displayed at metro stations. Commuters will receive QR-based tickets instantly through a simple chat interface.
