- If the person you're chatting with has read receipts disabled, you won't be able to buy a read receipt for this conversation.
-
Select a bundle and tap Continue . Choose whether you want to buy an individual read receipt for this conversation or a bundle you can apply to chats with other matches.
- Once you tap Continue , read receipts will be active in this conversation.
