Paytm rolls out KYC-enabled customer base
Mobile payments and e-commerce platform Paytm has announced the roll out of Aadhar-based e-Know Your Customer (e-KYC), a move that will help enable a real-time and paperless customer verification process.
“At Paytm, we are targeting to acquire over 25 million additional KYC customers in the coming year,” Vijay Shekhar Sharma, Founder & CEO at Paytm said. “The Aadhar-based eKYC network will onboard consumers and merchants from over 400 towns across India. Our aim is to build India’s largest KYC-enabled customer-base,” Regulated entities such as banks and wallet providers are required to carry out certain customer identification procedures while opening accounts and undertaking transactions. Currently, wallets with complete KYC enjoy a higher spending limit of Rs. one lakh as compared to Rs.10,000 for semi-KYC wallets.
