With this association, many more outlets across India covering categories like retail, hospitality, food & beverage, pharma, health and beauty and many other business verticals will now accept FreeCharge.
Paynear provides mPOS solution to small scale merchants - grocery shops, pharmacy etc through an mPOS reader to the merchant and an mPay app. Using the same, merchants can accept payments using wallets, DC/CC and in EMI.
With the arrangement with FreeCharge, customers can use their mobile phones to make payments and complete the transaction with a secure On-The-Go-Pin in less than 10 seconds.
