Rs. 500, Rs. 1000 Ban Effect: Paytm Creates Record with 5 Million Transactions per Day
Paytm is hugely benefiting from the demonetisation of Rs. 500 and Rs. 1,000 notes.
It appears as if the demonetization of Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 notes is turning out to be great for the mobile payment platform, Paytm. The company has announced that it has touched 5 million transactions per day and is on its way to process over 24,000 crores.
The sudden lift in the transactions can be attributed to the infamous ban of Rs. 500 and Rs. 1,000 notes in India. As a result, people opted for mobile payments instead of credit and debit cards and hence the uplift.
