Why Fintechs Are At War With Juspay
- After PhonePe, Razorpay, and Cashfree, Paytm has decided to discontinue its integrations with Juspay and opt for direct integration with merchants starting April 1st.
- Juspay's COO clarified that the company is a technology service provider to merchants and mentioned that the recent media reports regarding partnerships are incorrect.
- PGs began severing ties with Juspay after it received a payment aggregator licence from RBI and launched its PA service, HyperPG.
- Juspay introduced an open-source payments routing engine to provide merchants with more visibility and control over their payment infrastructure.
- Fintechs are opting for direct integration with merchants to offer end-to-end services and retain control over the payment processing value chain.
- Despite the conflict, Juspay remains a leader in payment orchestration, processing over 175 million transactions daily and achieving substantial revenue growth.
- Juspay trimmed its net loss and increased operating revenue, aiming for adjusted EBITDA profitability in the ongoing financial year.
- Gateways like Razorpay, Cashfree, and PhonePe aim to offer faster deployment and retain data integrity by integrating directly with merchants.
- Juspay's routing engine offers rule-based and dynamic gateway ordering, ensuring control over routing traffic and optimal gateway selection.
- The move by fintechs to distance themselves from Juspay stems from concerns of customer poaching and lack of transparency in routing engine operations.

Paytm to stop using third-party payment orchestration, shifts to direct processing from April 1
- Paytm has announced that it will no longer use third-party payment orchestration platforms like Juspay and will instead process transactions directly.
- Starting April 1, 2025, Paytm Payments Services Limited (PPSL) will only support payments routed through its own system, and it has asked businesses to make the switch before the deadline to avoid service disruptions.
- Paytm is the latest major fintech company to move away from external orchestration services, joining Razorpay, PhonePe, and Cashfree Payments in an industry-wide shift.
- This shift reflects a trend among leading payment firms that are looking to offer integrated solutions without depending on external routing engines, signaling a major change in how digital payments are handled across India.
