"Pay1 is a technology company that empowers neighborhood retail
businesses & micro-entrepreneurs by adding revenues streams and providing them access to new products, credit and technology. With a network of 300k+ merchants spread across 350+ cities in India, Pay1 is at the forefront of combining retail, finance, travel and consumer technology to create an integrated business ecosystem unique to the Indian markets. The diverse selections of services provide our merchant network with immense growth opportunities that have been previously unexplored in the Indian retail scenario." OUR VALUE PROPOSITION
• In the credit space, we look at the NBFC business as a combination of 4
things: • Lead Generation and KYC Collection • Data providing for underwriting with merchant's consent - transactional and alternate data • Disbursal into Pay1 balance - this helps in keeping track of daily transactions and the loan usage. • Repayment & Collections from Pay1 balance - PAY1 acts as a collection agent for the NBFC and deducts daily EMIs from the retailers’ wallets and transfers it to them on their preference. (Daily, weekly, monthly) Pay1 has a support team that takes care of recollection until T+10 default days, and then the NBFC is informed about the same. Beyond this, we can invoke our field sales and distributors and neighborhood stores to help. We strongly believe that the last two are critical when we talk about profitability and sustainability of the lending business and hence, we focus not only on on- boarding and data providing for underwriting but also on continuously reducing in-genuine defaults. And thus, this module has helped us to maintain less than 1% of default rates in the lending portfolio. Currently, the pre-approval rate looks like 10-12% of the merchant base, out of which only 1-2% avail the loan services and the average ticket size of the loan is Rs. 50,000. We look forward to increase the pre-approval rate to 50% and average loan ticket size to Rs. 2,00,000 OUR EXPECTATIONS
What we expect from our partners is a solid process at their end to
ensure our merchant experience remains top notch and that disbursals happen real-time. We also expect insights from them to continuously improve and strengthen the segment from our end. Thank you! www.pay1.in
