Razorpay secures RBI’s cross border license Razorpay has received the payment aggregator cross border (PA–CB) license from the Reserve Bank of India. This authorisation allows the company to facilitate both inward and outward cross-border payments under full regulatory oversight. With the new license, Razorpay will support exporters, SaaS companies, freelancers, D2C brands, and global companies operating in India. Razorpay’s international payments stack is used by companies such as Airbnb, Agoda, Shopify, Klook, and Hostinger. The cross-border business is growing at 40% year-on-year. Razorpay International Payments enables Indian businesses to accept payments in more than 130 currencies through cards, wallets, and local bank transfers. The platform provides optimised payment flows with a reported 95% success rate for international transactions. For global companies entering India, Razorpay offers a single integration that enables UPI, RuPay, EMIs, netbanking, and over 100 local payment methods. Companies can go live in India without creating a local entity. The platform supports INR-based pricing, OTP-led checkout, and India-based customer support. The company has raised more than $741 million from investors including Lightspeed, Lone Pine Capital, Alkeon Capital, TCV, GIC, Tiger Global, Peak XV Partners, Ribbit Capital, Matrix Partners, Salesforce Ventures, and Y Combinator. With this, Razorpay joins the list of few payment fintech companies in India authorized to offer all three key payment capabilities under a single infrastructure. Last month, Easebuzz, PayU and Pine Labs also received integrated authorisation from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

With this licence, it plans to enable compliant cross-border pay-ins and pay-outs for digital services, e-commerce, and B2B goods trade, serving businesses across Asian emerging markets. The PA-CB licence will significantly enhance the company’s ability to facilitate seamless cross-border payments and simplify compliance for businesses engaged in international trade.

Founded in 2021 by Arjun Zacharia, EximPe is an all-in-one platform that provides real time rate booking, compliance, and trade documentation for businesses. The company serves a range of businesses who trade or sell services globally. The Mumbai-based company had previously raised $3.5 million in Series A round from Leo Capital and others. “With this licence, EximPe is uniquely positioned to support businesses in expanding in the highest growth global corridor between India-Asia, while simplifying complex regulatory and financial requirements. With the PA-CB licence, we want to expand our business by 10X by the end of FY 2026,” said Arjun Zacharia, CEO and founder of EximPe. The platform claims to have already processed over $450 million in transactions and serves more than 5,000 SMEs, manufacturers, and service providers.
