India Cards and Payments Market Dynamics
India has seen an accelerated growth in the digital payments space. With the launch of the Immediate Payment Service (IMPS) in 2010 followed by UPI in 2016, India has a well-developed instant payment infrastructure. IMPS is primarily used for fund transfers and UPI is preferred for day-to-day payments and regular fund transfers.
While debit cards lead in terms of cards in circulation, credit cards are preferred for payments in India. To capitalize on this, fintech companies are entering the market. For example, India-based fintech company CRED offers credit cards that allow holders to make payments both online and in-store. Cardholders earn reward points (called CRED coins) for their purchases, which can be redeemed at partner merchants.
