Dubbed as PayQwik, the service allows customers to make purchases, pay bills, top up mobile phones and purchase coupons at up to 60,000 merchants and 12 telecom companies across India.

The company said that it has integrated its network with over 50 banks, cash card, debit and credit card networks, net banking, and other mobile wallets through which customers can load money into their PayQwik mobile wallet.

With this mobile payment service, customers can also send money to any mobile number across India, and to generate and redeem loyalty points.

Additionally, PayQwik will allow customers to transfer money from their bank account to their PayQwik mobile wallet and vice versa. It will be available for download in the Google Play Store and also for iOS devices in the near future.

According to First Global, during the initial phase launch of the PayQwik mobile wallet in India, over 500 products from one online shopping store in India have been included into the PayQwik mobile wallet.
