Our focus is on innovation that balances freedom with guidance—ensuring every digital transaction becomes a step toward independence, literacy, and trust,” said Ankit Gera, co-founder of Junio Payments. The Junio app, trusted by over 2 million students and young professionals, creates a safe, cashless, and educational payment environment for India’s digital-native youth.
