Over the past decade, Paytm has worked to change the economics of serving micro, small and medium
enterprises through AI-powered technology in payments and financial services, allowing us to serve them
profitably. Daily payment acceptance keeps merchants engaged with the platform, which in turn lets us
distribute financial services and other technology services. As these merchants grow, they process more
payments and take more services through Paytm, which reinforces the cycle.
