Paytm India has quietly launched a device that will change the way digital payments are done. The device is called Paytm All-in-One Portable Android Smart POS and is the first-ever of its kind to hit the Indian market. This new Android-based POS by Paytm is aimed at small to medium-size vendors and logistics companies. It cannot be a coincidence that this device has been launched just a few days after Bhavesh Gupta joined Paytm as CEO of the lending business. As of now, the Paytm POS will be available to vendors as a rental price of Rs. 499 per month. The Paytm Android POS will be running the Paytm for Business app and will be able to manage all the transactions.
Paytm Sr. Vice President Renu Satti gave a statement saying “We innovate products & services that are aligned with our mission of enabling SMEs with technology-led solutions. We are confident that this affordable pocket-sized Paytm Android POS device will enable everyone from SMEs to delivery personnel of Kirana Stores to collect payments safely. It is our endeavour to help merchants & traders to easily digitize their business operations, without any investment in technology or backend infrastructure. Our Paytm for Business app, Khata, and payout services are providing the much-needed digitization support to businesses to improve their efficiency & supporting them to join the Digital India mission.”
To empower SMEs with technology-led solutions, we are proud to launch India’s first pocket Android POS device for contactless ordering & payments.
