More than 2 billion people in over 180 countries use WhatsApp to stay in touch with friends and family, anytime and anywhere. By focusing on serving users who are new to the internet, with low-end devices, unreliable network connection, and of low-tech literacy, we've helped to bridge the digital divide, making the world feel a little smaller. Building on our strengths, we are now striving to bridge the financial divide to make the world a little more equal. Payments is the first step in this direction.Our goal is to make the exchange of money as simple and reliable as the exchange of a WhatsApp message. Imagine paying a friend for dinner, or your favorite small business for their services, without needing to download or even open another app.We launched peer to peer payments in India, WhatsApp's largest market, just a year ago and have seen rapid growth. We are now looking for mission driven product managers to help unlock the next frontier of innovative consumer payments products and take our commerce payments experience from zero to one.The opportunity is momentous, the responsibility is huge and our ambitions are bold.
