Our partnership with Karur Vysya Bank would further strengthen our reach to the market and help position YPayCash as the non-cash instrument of choice for retailers in Tamil Nadu and neighboring states."

With this launch, we are not only introducing an innovative and unique technology solution to our customers but also bringing in a disruptive business model that would bring a paradigm shift in the payment ecosystem.
