With over 1.3 million Indian students studying overseas and significant emigration flows, this partnership directly addresses a crucial market segment’s financial needs.
“The shift from traditional money transfers to direct bill payments is bringing real, measurable benefits to Indians worldwide,” noted Saravana. “Our platform eliminates multiple currency conversions and reduces transfer fees that have long eaten into hard-earned money, providing students and working professionals abroad with greater control and visibility over their finances.”
