California (Web Desk) — TikTok is working on a new feature that may allow users to send money directly to each other through messages. The facility is expected to be provided through TikTok Pay.
According to reports, code related to the feature has been spotted in the TikTok app for US iPhone users, indicating that users may be able to send money along with a message.
The company said the feature is not currently being tested, so it is too early to comment on its launch date or the countries where it may be available.
TikTok is already expanding into shopping, search, hotel bookings, games and other services, and is seeking to further broaden its reach through financial services.
