Snapdeal partners with NPCI to enable doorstep digital payments for online orders

Snapdeal has partnered with National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) to allow buyers to make QR-based digital payments at the time of accepting delivery of their orders.

This facility is aimed at new or first-time users who are not comfortable in pre-paying for the goods at the time of purchase.

The customer will be offered the “QR-code payment option” at their doorstep as part of the delivery process. Using links on their delivery app, the delivery executive will generate a UPI-linked QR code for the order amount. The customer will be able to scan the code with any UPI-linked payment app on their phone and pay for their purchase. The customer will be able to confirm the name of the payee and the amount before approving the payment.
