Why this license matters

This license is a big deal because it lets CRED process payments without middlemen, making things smoother and cheaper for businesses.
It also means CRED met RBI's regulatory requirements.

CRED already plays a huge role in India's credit card scene. In FY2024-25, it processed over ₹8.5 trillion for 15 million users and claims to handle more than one-third of all credit card bill payments in the country.
The new license allows CRED to onboard merchants, collect payments, and manage settlements and refunds directly.
