TechGraph: Could you provide insights into FidyPay’s target market and the strategies employed to attract and retain customers, especially in a competitive environment?

Manan Dixit: The geographic regions that have shown the greatest reluctance to adopt digital payment systems constitute FidyPay’s target market. We are moving forward with the notion of making India entirely cashless, and we believe that this will become a reality once areas that have been resistive to adopting new technologies, most likely rural areas, tier-2 or tier-3 cities, are able to do so.

In terms of strategy, we provide businesses with a variety of services, including UPI QR, customized POS, eKYC, UPI AutoPay, and many others, so that they can extend their financial services to individuals who live in rural areas or other areas where people are averse to using digital payment methods.

Manan Dixit: We have a lot of reason to be proud of our partnerships, since these titans of business have opened the way for FidyPay to meet the requirements that individuals have for their financial dealings. There are several companies that we are honored to call partners, including NPCI, ICICI Bank, Yes Bank, Axis Bank, Worldline, and Signzy.

Each of our partners has worked together to ensure that their service offerings are properly integrated into our network. As a result, our efforts are assuring that both parties will flourish in all aspects of their businesses.

TechGraph: FidyPay has a strong focus on innovation. Could you share some examples of recent technological advancements or product enhancements that have set the company apart from its competitors?

Manan Dixit: FidyPay’s dedication to innovation sets us apart from our competitors. Here are some recent technological advancements and product enhancements that showcase our commitment:
FidyPay has integrated advanced AI algorithms into our risk management systems. These cutting-edge models analyze transaction patterns, user activity, and market data in real-time, enabling us to detect and prevent fraudulent activities more effectively.

We provide a comprehensive dashboard that offers users a centralized platform to manage their accounts, access transaction details, and monitor financial activities. Our user-friendly interface, intuitive navigation, and robust performance ensure a seamless experience.

These recent technological advancements and product updates highlight our commitment to innovation and meeting the evolving needs of our users. We continue to explore new technologies and improve our services to provide a secure, convenient, and user-centric fintech experience.

TechGraph: As FidyPay continues to grow, what is the long-term vision for the company, and how do you plan to maintain customer trust and loyalty in an ever-evolving payment landscape?

Manan Dixit: FidyPay’s long-term goal is to help everyone and every business adopt digital payment infrastructure. Digital payments need confidence and reliability, especially in rural areas and tier-2/tier-3 cities. We’ve always been committed to this vision. From the start, we’ve worked to earn client trust.

In a competitive market, embracing digital payments might be difficult. Thus, we educate consumers and businesses on the benefits of digital payments. We educate our consumers through informative content, workshops, and individual assistance. Digital payments offer convenience, speed, security, and financial management. Our commitment to digital payment confidence and reliability continues. We are prepared for the long haul to change mindsets and habits.

We will always educate and help customers. FidyPay thinks digital payments can transform the financial landscape for consumers and organizations regardless of location or economic background. We seek to bridge the gap and encourage digital payment infrastructure adoption by building trust, providing reliable services, and advertising its benefits. We will continue to improve our tactics, create new solutions, and reach rural and tier-2/tier-3 cities. We want to empower everyone with digital payments.
