Paytm vs. Wise

The portal is easy to understand. Anyone can use this payment gateway on their website or app. Small businesses also can use this gateway to accept payments from their customers. Payment notifications are instant and received fund gets settled in bank account without any delay. Provides less payment gateway charges for debit, credit, and prepaid cards where with UPI and rupay payment gateway charges are zero. It has a unique dashboard to monitor transaction details. Available in both web and mobile application.

For a small business looking to expand internationally, transferwise offers lower admin fee and no hidden fee which is very important. It also remove the hassle and headache of setting up accounts with the local banks. Other than the low fees, the best part is we can use transferwise safely with a peace of mind as it is being regulated by the MAS. Lastly, any small business can set up their transferwise account within minutes which is very convenient

• One of the not so convenient things on Paytm is that if there is a connection failure while making a payment, your money is not credited directly to your bank account but rather to the Paytm Wallet, and this money can only be used by the Paytm platform.
• In Paytm, user verification requires a personal visit to their physical offices, this can generate a lot of discomfort among potential users since if we want to use a virtual service it is precisely to encourage time saving.
• You should be very careful when making purchases through Paytm's direct store, since in many occasions there are products of lower quality than the one offered and even fake products, it is better to use it to make payments to third parties and in considered amounts.

• For large money transfers, the tax is a bit expensive so it would be nice if that was adjusted or if there was some economy of scale.
• Ability to schedule recurring transfers could be useful.
• Be able to transfer money by using a mobile phone number, like with Mobile Pay or Bizum, when the sender and receiver of the money are in different countries.

I use Paytm just for the ticket booking system. For most of my daily transactions, Google Pay is the way. Google Pay has provided things very simple and faster. They always focus on a user-friendly env rather than adding everything to the app. They kept the app more simple and more useful.

We considered PayPal payment, ACH bank transfer, and simply mailing a check. TransferWise's fees were much lower than PayPal and our bank. Postage might have been less than TransferWise's fee, but payment could have taken more than a week rather than hours (or days in the case of a new payee).

• It decreased checkout time for the user which allowed us to increase user experience.
• Rarely, I used to face issues with transactions. If order got cancelled refunding of money, settling them etc.,
• Since Paytm has link with UPI and I am able to collect money from any UPI applications, using credit or debit card, and internet banking it acted as single stop solution for me. There is no need to have multiple payment gateway options.
