In a big boost to the Modi government, Rupay, homegrown card payment network, which constituted just 0.6 percent in market share in 2013, now controls half of the segment, ahead of Visa, Mastercard and other players combined. The transaction through RuPay card rose to Rs 2,347 crore till May 2018 from Rs 1,929 crore at the end of March 2018. The RuPay cards can be used at 1.45 lakhs ATMs, 26.14 lakhs POS terminals and various e-commerce websites across the length and breadth of the country.
More than 459 million transactions, constituting more than half of total transactions, are being made in India using RuPay. In June last year, Rupay became the largest payment card network, piping VISA, when it touched the base of 375 million transactions.
