PayMate, leader in B2B payments; is one of the few Indian companies being showcased at the prestigious Singapore Fintech Festival 2018 in not just one but in two big ways – firstly, as VISA’s preferred Indian partner for B2B payment services and secondly, by showcasing the platform’s APIs at a launch initiative led by ASEAN Financial Innovation Network (AFIN).
The PayMate platform that allows corporate customers with an end-to-end automated procurement to payments cycle; is being positioned as a part of Visa India’s preferred partner to gain stronghold in the B2B payments landscape from November 12-14, 2018. Additionally, the platform’s APIs will be presented at the launch of API Exchange (APIX), world’s first cross-border, open architecture, online marketplace and sandbox platform by AFIN. This exposure promises to increase the company’s visibility across Asia via a trusted and neutral platform.
Speaking on such high-profile opportunities, Ajay Adiseshann, Founder & CEO, PayMate India Pvt. Ltd. says, “This is a huge opportunity for us to show off our innovative technology and hard work that has gone into building a comprehensive procure-to-pay platform suitable for any size of business. By doing so, we continue to abide by our mission of enabling more and more businesses to automate their entire payment processes in an easy and efficient manner. Showcasing our platform in such unique and innovative ways will help us explore new avenues for the near future.” Speaking about the Visa partnership, Ajay adds, “We are proud to have teamed up with the global leader in payments and are committed to help businesses of all sizes migrate from cash and cheques to digital payments using commercial cards.”
Ms. Chavi Jafa, Head, Business Solutions, India and South Asia, Visa adds, ‘In response to growing demand for digital payments by corporations, Visa has a deep focus on B2B payments for the Indian market. Working with our key clients, we have taken to market comprehensive solutions for B2B use cases. We have worked with PayMate as our preferred partner for invoice-based payments in India for the past year. Our partnership delivers an end-to-end solution for corporations, ensuring that they benefit from process efficiency, enhanced working capital and scalability across India.’
