While the vaccination program in India continues to move ahead in full force, Paytm has introduced a new feature that allows users to easily book a vaccination slot in their nearest healthcare centers.
Open the Paytm app (Android and iOS, Free) on your smartphone. We tested this new feature on an iOS device.
Then, tap on the search button (magnifying glass icon) at the top right and search for “Covid-19 Vaccine Finder” or simply type “Vaccine”.
Following this, you might have to verify your mobile number using an OTP to log into the CoWIN platform.
On the next page, you will find a list of the nearest hospitals and healthcare centers where vaccines are available. You can sort the results on the basis of free, paid, and what vaccine you want to be administered.
Now, you or the person who is to get vaccinated can visit the selected vaccination center on the scheduled date. However, it is worth mentioning that the beneficiary should carry the same photo verification ID they used to register for the vaccine appointment. So, by following the above steps, you can easily book a vaccine appointment on Paytm. Also, if you didn’t already know, you can also use this tool to be notified of vacant slots around your city.
