The Noida-based company had recently received authorization from the Reserve Bank of India to issue and operate Pre-paid Instruments in the country. The OmniCard manifests the flexibility and seamless consumer payment experience to our Young and their families using their pre-paid card account independently and relieving their parents of giving them physical cash or supplementary debit/ credit cards for their spending.
Sanjeev Pandey, Co-Founder & CEO says “OmniCard solves the problem by cashless convenience that matches the vibes of the youth, lifestyle and spending experience with innovative Mobile app UI and reliability of Card. We are targeting 230 million Young in the age group of 15-24 years to empower them to spend smartly and responsibly. Today’s Young are digital natives, possess high access to the Internet, prefer independence, are full-grown consumers and influencers to family’s new age consumerism. The present apps and banks do not offer this financial freedom to the pre-banked segment and their guardians who are keen on budgets”

We believe this card will offer a smart and unique payment experience to GenNext customers.

Jason Ho, Co-Founder states, “OmniCard is a complete experience in one step integrated with mobile App, Rupay Card and Tap &Pay for the national mass transit system. In some developed nations like Singapore, Japan, and Taiwan, it took decades to achieve such products that require a mature regulation system, standardization of technologies, and innovative hardworking people, who understand technologies but also care about the customer needs. We are committed to redefining the payment experience in every payment ecosystem in India.
