Google shows Chat with business option in search results

Google is showing a new messaging option within its search results, allowing users to chat with businesses through Google Messages.

I spotted this feature in a search result for Flipkart. Below the business listing, Google displays a “Chat with Flipkart Minutes” section with a “Message” button and the label “On Google Messages”.

Clicking the Message button gives users a direct way to start a conversation with the business through Google Messages, without having to manually search for its contact details.

Here is how the messaging option appears in Google Search.

This provides another way for businesses to connect with potential customers directly from Google Search.
