Razorpay, through Razorpay Curlec, has partnered with NPCI International Payments Limited (NIPL) to enable UPI payments in Malaysia. Indian travellers will be able to pay Malaysian merchants using UPI apps, with settlement in Malaysian Ringgit (RM). The integration removes the need for cash or international cards for Indian visitors. Malaysian merchants will receive payments in local currency through Razorpay Curlec. Razorpay Curlec will offer UPI acceptance to businesses across sectors including retail, travel, hospitality, and small enterprises. In 2024, more than one million Indian tourists visited Malaysia and spent over Rs 110 billion. The partnership aims to simplify cross-border payments and improve payment acceptance for merchants serving Indian visitors. UPI processed 19.6 billion transactions in India in September 2025. The arrangement gives Malaysian businesses access to Indian UPI users and supports cross-border payments with instant settlement. Razorpay Curlec currently supports recurring payments, card payments, payouts, subscription management, and billing solutions for businesses in Malaysia. The company will use the partnership to expand its cross-border payment stack and merchant network. NIPL focuses on expanding UPI and RuPay outside India through partnerships with payment service providers and central payment networks. The Malaysia launch is part of NIPL’s plan to enable UPI acceptance in international markets. UPI has expanded to several new countries, including France and the UAE, with agreements in place for Namibia, Trinidad and Tobago, and Peru. It is already operational in Bhutan, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Mauritius, and Nepal, and recently went live in Qatar.

Mswipe gets RBI payment aggregator licence for online and offline transactions Mumbai-based digital payments firm Mswipe Technologies has received the Reserve Bank of India’s final Payment Aggregator (PA) licence, allowing it to operate across both online and physical payment channels. With this approval, Mswipe can onboard merchants and aggregate payments across in-store, online, and hybrid setups under a single regulatory framework. The licence also enables the company to facilitate inward and outward cross-border payment flows, expanding its scope beyond domestic acceptance. The firm currently offers MPOS and smart PoS terminals, QR soundboxes, payment gateways, and embedded digital payment services to merchants across categories. In recent months, RBI approved online, offline and cross border payment aggregation for around half a dozen companies. These include Paytm, Razorpay, Easebuzz, PayU, Pine Labs and Airpay. With these clearances, the firms are authorised to offer a full stack of payment aggregator services across ecommerce transactions, in store merchant payments and cross border payment flows. According to the company, the licence will allow it to scale its omni-channel payments offering and roll out additional services for MSMEs and enterprises operating across physical and digital channels. In FY24, Mswipe’s payments business reported adjusted profitability, with revenue crossing Rs 275 crore. Its total payment volume more than doubled year-on-year, driven by increased adoption of its combined offline and online payment solutions. Founded in 2011, Mswipe serves merchants across more than 600 cities in India. The company is backed by investors including Alpha Wave Global, Matrix Partners, B Capital, DSG Consumer Partners, Epiq Capital, UC-RNT, and Ola.
