1ne97 Communications Limited (OCL), Paytm's parent company, began migrating customers to partner payment service provider (PSP) banks Axis Bank, HDFC Bank, SBI and Yes Bank. Until now, Paytm UPI customers were using Paytm Payments Bank Limited (PPBL) which was barred by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) from conducting several business operations.
How has been Paytm operating since RBI's order?
Since March 15, Paytm has been functioning as a third-party application provider (TPAP) and not as a payments bank app. Paytm roped in Axis Bank, Yes Bank, SBI and HDFC Bank as its payment service provider (PSP) banks to be its partners in the TPAP.
"Following NPCI's approval on March 14, 2024, to onboard OCL as a Third- Party Application Provider (TPAP), Paytm has expedited the integration with Axis Bank, HDFC Bank, State Bank of India (SBI), and YES Bank. All four banks are now operational on the TPAP, streamlining the process for Paytm to shift user accounts to these PSP banks," the company said in a statement to stock exchanges.
