How to accept payments using Indus Merchant Solutions App

Posted on Thursday, February 9th, 2023 | By IndusInd Bank

Digital transactions have revolutionized the payments landscape in India. The era of demonetization and the Covid-19 pandemic nudged the business sector to shift to cashless payments in order to survive. With this, both the merchants and customers got to experience the convenience associated with digital payment solutions. The ease of conducting financial transactions with just a tap has motivated the consumers to go digital. They no longer need to carry cash or even queue up for ATM withdrawals. Since customers are rapidly switching to cashless payment methods, your business should be equipped to cater to their payment preferences.

The importance of multiple payment solutions

As a business owner, you need to keep your customer’s preferences above yours. If a merchant who still prefers cash payments does not offer digital payment options to its customer, it is likely that they will have lesser repeat customers which may impact the business. This is because the customers will see making cash payments as a time-consuming task. To avoid this, you can give your customers the freedom to pay with a method they prefer via Indus Merchant Solutions App.
