Razorpay gets RBI approval for payment aggregator license
July 12, 2022
The central bank issued a payment aggregator framework in March 2020, stating that payment gateways will be mandated to have a license in order to acquire merchants and provide them with digital payments acceptance solutions.
Under RBI’s strict evaluation process, more than 185 fintech enterprises and startups submitted their proposals for a payment aggregator license.
“We are really excited to have received our Payment Aggregator License. We at Razorpay, recognise that we have a responsibility to innovate by not just looking at the future but taking analogies from the past, and strengthening the financial ecosystem of tomorrow, so that millions of businesses, small and big can flourish, said Harshil Mathur, CEO abd Co-founder of Razorpay.
The few firms authorized to operate as payment aggregators in India will come under the direct purview of the RBI. Established in 2014, the company currently provides technology payment solutions to over 8 million businesses.
