Snippets EximPe secures RBI PA-CB in-principle licence EximPe, a cross-border payment startup, has secured the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) Payment Aggregator Cross-Border (PA-CB) In-Principle licence (export and import). According to EximPe, this makes the company one of the first to receive this new regulatory authorization without any existing payments licences. 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. The licence will enable the startup to transition from a technology platform enabling cross border payments to being able to provide a fully regulated cross border infra play. 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. It aims to further strengthen its position as a leading cross-border payment infrastructure provider by expanding its capabilities with this new licence.

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.
