Mobile payments company Paytm announced on September 4 that it had launched “Card Soundbox”, which integrates QR-based payments and mobile payments, and accepts tap-to-pay card payments for 995 rupees per month.
This versatile device allows merchants to “Tap and Pay” to connect to any Visa, Mastercard, American Express and RuPay network to accept card payments using Near Field Communication (NFC) technology. They can accept mobile and card payments. .
The device notifies all card and QR code payments, and merchants can also disable card payments if they wish.
However, they do not accept swipe payments. In other words, we do not accept payments greater than INR 5,000 at a time as the regulations do not allow you to pay transaction amounts greater than INR 5,000 in a single transaction.
Paytm recently launched a small mobile “Pocket Soundbox” and “Music Soundbox” that plays songs on soundbox devices.
