It will not only be a one-stop solution for acceptance of all payments through UPI and Bharat QR, it will also save transaction cost,” said Venkat Paruchuri, Chief Product Officer, Pine Labs.

Paper POS will offer range of other benefits to the merchants like detailed insights on the transactions as well as reconciliation of all transactions, including Paper POS transactions at one place on myPlutus web (TRM) or on the myPlutus app.

The merchants can also receive instant notifications for transactions on the myPlutus app.
