Prepaid Wallet License
The prepaid instruments can be issued as smart cards, magnetic stripe cards, internet accounts, online wallets, mobile accounts, mobile wallets, paper vouchers and any such instruments used to access the prepaid amount. With a crunch of cash in sight, most people are nowadays rushing to cashless transactions. An effective way of such a payment option is through a prepaid wallet which helps transactions to be carried out with transparency, scalability, and accountability. The RBI helps in classifying cashless fund transfer or transactions using cards or mobile phones as prepaid payment instruments. As per guidelines of RBI, there are three types of the prepaid wallet namely (1) Closed wallet, (2) Semi closed wallet and (3) Open wallet. These wallets have gained recognition as a payment option especially in e- commerce and telecom services, as they can be used to pay the services.
