M1 partners with Stripe to offer phone reservations via WhatsApp

It is the company’s first foray into conversational commerce. 

M1 Limited has partnered with financial platform Stripe to enable select subscribers to reserve and secure phones via WhatsApp.

M1 Corporate Individual (CORI) scheme subscribers are now able to make a deposit and reserve a handset of their choice through WhatsApp.

“This is M1’s first foray into conversational commerce. Currently, M1 CORI customers can access deals, product launches, and personalised updates in-real time via WhatsApp,” said Mustafa Kapasi, chief operating officer of M1. 

M1 first offered WhatsApp as a sales channel in August 2023. At the time, customers could only register their interest and receive first-hand updates in popular models.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
