Again on Fred (chatbot on Whatsapp)

HI Alfred, all clear now! Thanks for info and explanations :)

BTW; so it’s your FredApp now available as native app for Android and/or iOS ?

About privacy and security: yes, I possibly agree about the fact Whatsapp protocol is… “unsecure” regarding text-based payment transactions; this could be the reason why Facebook do not implemented any #convcomm chatbot on whatsapp until now.

BTW, as far as I know, Messenger instead foresee (just in USA, if i’m not wrong) a P2P (private to private) payments, so integrating a payment gateway. So yes, in 12 April event, if the Bot Store will be uficialized/extended to a large list of business partners, you will see (credit card) payment integration.

BTW, your payment gateway running behind Whatsapp have been an hazard, maybe, in terms of security/ possible cracks; nevertheless I appreciated the experiment :)

Reading screenshot, I noticed taht among payments there was also “cash”. My question/curiosity: #cashondelivery (for onlineshopping on a ecommerce) is considered a possible suitable option for people in Brasil?

About me: I’m now organizing first Italian meetup next months, with title “conversational computation and the chatbot revolution”. I’m focused on chatbots not only in commercial contexts, but also I’m studying a possible dialog flow script common language, as way to share knlowledge bases. Complex topics…

Stay tuned!

Respect
