Changes in the RBI system will provide huge benefits to businessmen and transactions will be settled quickly.

Businessman faces problems due to payment aggregator

Payment aggregator is a third party service provider that enables businesses to accept online payments from customers. In such a situation, banks have to integrate with different payment aggregators for each platform, due to which this process becomes complicated. Apart from this, many times the business also faces delay in receiving the payment amount.

Businessmen will benefit

To overcome this problem of traders and banks, RBI has decided to change the rules. RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das has also said that NPCI Bharat Bill Pay Limited has been given approval to start a system so that there is no need for third party payment aggregator (Merchant Payment). There is a plan to implement this system in the current financial year. Shaktikanta Das has expressed hope that with the implementation of this new system, the money transactions of the traders will be settled immediately and this will also increase the trust of the users on digital payments.
