Airtel has introduced a new feature titled “Gift a Recharge with a Special Note” on its Airtel Thanks app. This allows users to attach a personalised message when sending a mobile recharge to a friend or family member, effectively combining a utilitarian task with a personal touch.
How the Feature Works
The functionality is designed to fit seamlessly into the existing recharge flow within the Airtel Thanks app. The process is straightforward:
- Selection: The user selects a contact from their list or enters the mobile number of the recipient.
- Plan Choice: The user chooses the appropriate recharge pack (data, talktime, or validity).
- Personalisation: Before finalizing the payment, a prompt allows the user to type a custom message.
- Delivery: Once the transaction is complete, the recipient receives the recharge instantly, accompanied by the sender’s note.
Airtel’s “Gift a Recharge with a Special Note” reflects this changing landscape, offering users a way to infuse meaning into everyday digital necessities.
