LIC Update: You can now pay your LIC policy premium using WhatsApp.
Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) has launched a new service for its customers, allowing them to pay their premiums through WhatsApp.
This new feature works via LIC’s WhatsApp Bot and aims to provide a simple and fast way for customers to make payments anytime and from anywhere.
How to Pay LIC Premium on WhatsApp
To use this service, send ‘HI’ on WhatsApp to 8976862090, the official LIC WhatsApp number.
After sending the message, several options will appear. You can select the one that matches your need.
If your policy is already registered on the LIC website, you will be able to see your due premium directly on the WhatsApp Bot.
You can then make the payment using UPI, net banking, or debit/credit cards. Once the payment is completed, you’ll receive an instant receipt.
LIC Chairman and Managing Director Siddharth Mohanty said this service will improve speed and transparency for customers.
Using a popular platform like WhatsApp makes LIC services more accessible and convenient than ever.
