Set to change the payments ecosystem in India<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Payments app \u2013 Trupay <\/strong>which has been created to change the payments ecosystem in India, has successfully crossed 50,000 installs on the Google play store within a month of launch. The revolutionary App aims to transform the entire payments ecosystem.<\/p>\n

Trupay<\/strong> by-passes all intermediate layers, allowing the user to pay anyone on its contact list directly from one\u2019s bank account instantly. It securely transforms one\u2019s bank account into a pay on the go solution which can then be used to pay anyone with just their phone number. Trupay<\/strong> has been rigorously tested and the App was even piloted by some of the biggest companies in the e-commerce space. So, in a nutshell, not only does Trupay allow monies to be transferred from individual bank accounts, it even creates a solution for segments like e-commerce and retail wherein buyers can now pay companies through their smart-phone, creating a hassle-free payments system.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Trupay, Rahul Gochhwal, Co-founder of Trupay and an alumnus of IIM Calcutta said<\/strong> \u201cWe have been working on this App for more than a year now. Our aim was to enable transaction of money between individual bank accounts and shopping both online as well as in a store. This then helps in doing away with the hassle of swiping one\u2019s debit card, thereby doing away with the intermediaries involved and even the hassle of carrying your cards with you. It\u2019s a proud moment for us today and I am sure Trupay\u2019s features and uniqueness will attract more users to it.”<\/p>\n

Speaking on the launch, Narender Kumar, Co-founder of Trupay and a great fan of Elon Musk explains,<\/strong> \u201cI think it is important to solve a problem from first principles and try to find those fundamental truths. That is the only way to come up with transformative solutions else we come up with only slight iterations of what has been already been done before. Applying the same philosophy to the payments ecosystem, we realised that starting another wallet company was not the answer. So we set about discovering the problems within the current payments ecosystem. The more we dug into the details, the more we were convinced that the present payment ecosystem requires a transformational change as there were problems which were\u00a0 awaiting a solution in the name of Trupay<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n

Vivek Lohcheb, the third Co-founder, an alumnus of IIM Bangalore and the growth hack amongst the three added,<\/strong> “Jan Dhan Yojana bolstered with\u00a0the recent JAM (Jan Dhan-Aadhaar-Mobile) initiative by the Government\u00a0has tremendously expanded our reach. We want financial inclusion and with Trupay<\/strong>, every one with a bank account and a mobile becomes a potential user for Trupay<\/strong>. With the recent launch of the UPI by NPCI, we believe we have an edge over others since we already have an aligned product built on IMPS, ready to be integrated with UPI.\u00a0 This is a path breaking App and we are sure the user experience that Trupay<\/strong> offers has the potential to bring Corporates to start using this platform for their transactions.”<\/p>\n

Financial inclusion was a key goal which the team behind Trupay<\/strong> wanted to accomplish. After relentless research and hard-work, the brains behind Trupay<\/strong> built the App which successfully addresses the present issues that the payments scenario is going through.<\/p>\n

Features of Trupay<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Trupay<\/strong> allows one to send and receive money to anybody directly from one\u2019s bank account using only their mobile numbers.<\/li>\n
