3.15 million new customers for CCAvenue merchants - RBL Bank now live on India's largest Direct Debit Engine
21st July, 2017
CCAvenue.com, India's largest e-payment solutions provider today announced that it now offers the internet banking facility of RBL Bank on its platform. The addition further expands CCAvenue's Direct Debit Engine, which is presently the largest in the country, consisting of more than 50 banks. More than 1 lakh web merchants registered with the PG will benefit from this move, as it will offer them access to an entirely new and multiplying segment of customers.

Established in 1943, RBL Bank is one of India's fastest growing private sector banks. Through a pan-India network of 244 interconnected branches and 387 ATMs, the bank caters to more than 3.15 million customers across 20 Indian states and union territories. RBL Bank currently offers specialized services under six business verticals viz. Corporate & Institutional Banking, Commercial Banking, Branch & Business Banking, Agribusiness Banking, Development Banking and Financial Inclusion, Treasury and Financial Markets Operations. As of March 31, 2016, the bank's total business size was over Rs. 45,000 crores.

With the inclusion of RBL Bank's direct debit facility on CCAvenue.com, the bank's entire customer base will now have an opportunity to make purchases conveniently on leading websites through a direct debit to their accounts. CCAvenue powers numerous websites across major industry verticals including education, healthcare, recharge portals, online shopping, and travel, amongst others. The integration will also create an additional revenue stream for all CCAvenue merchants, resulting in an increase in the overall sales for their business.

Commenting on the new payment option, Mr. Vishwas Patel, CEO, Avenues Group said: "At CCAvenue, we understand that offering a comprehensive suite of payment modes is the key to building a broader client base and securing more business. The integration of RBL Bank is a miniscule yet significant step towards the reiteration of this tenet. This addition will further strengthen our partner ecosystem and ensure that merchants do not miss out on any sales opportunities coming their way due to unavailability of payment options. In the months ahead, CCAvenue shall continue to expand its network by integrating the best and latest payment options for the benefit of its diverse merchant base".
