According to a recent MasterCard survey, 80% per cent of bills in India are paid at the biller’s office, of which 90% are cash payments. Nearly 15% of bills are paid online either through online banking which is primarily available for the banked population or through the biller’s website, which would require the user to visit multiple websites.
 
“With MobiKwik, users now have the option of consolidating all their utility payments through one wallet that promises ease, security, and the convenience of doing away with cheques and late payments and the option to be green.” says, Bipin Preet Singh, CEO & Founder, MobiKwik. “Our ambition is to be the PayPal of India by simplifying digital transactions between merchants and consumers, facilitated by the MobiKwik m-wallet”, he further added.
