7) Over the past decade, the Indian financial landscape has gone through a
tremendous amount of changes because of digital payments. Various innovations and
initiatives by the government and new technology have made payments very simple and
easily available to the masses in the country. As a part of the payment
digitization process, India started operating its clearing rails, such as NEFT and
RTGS, on a 24x7 basis. India also introduced a real-time rail product for Universal
Payment Interface (UPI). UPI has since become a household name and is designed to
process 1 billion transactions a day. Montron's association with India started when
Montron was selected to implement OEM vendor for regulators' payment infrastructure
project. In addition to that, Montron also introduced its commercial bank products
to the commercial banks in the country, and today, six out of ten commercial banks
use Montron's solution to process their payments.
I'll be very happy to share one of our recent implementation experiences with one
of the big partner banks in India. This bank is a major retail bank and
participates in UPI clearing and settlement. They had applications running in a
hosted environment, and as we all know, that hosted environment brings its own
challenges in terms of scaling, availability of the system, and, of course, not to
forget about the cost. Having said that, we partnered with them and moved their
application in-house by implementing Montron's UPI product suite. Our UPI product
suite includes issuers and acquirer switch built on the latest microservice-based
technology, an emerging portal and administrative portal, and various reporting
modules. Montron UPI suite connects with banks' multiple internal and external
applications, such as fraud and risk management systems, core banking applications,
merchant portals, merchant APIs, mobile banking applications, etc., and provides a
comprehensive insight into dynamic data through widgets and reporting modules.
Our microservice-based design allows us to be agile in the market as NPCI keeps
bringing in more and more changes, and we have to ensure seamless delivery to our
customers. High availability and high scalability are the most important aspects of
the system when implementing the UPI application for any bank in India. Our
software design has to be agile to keep up with NPCI changes on the UPI rail so
that the time to market is minimal. One of the major challenges in implementing
this application was moving bank data from one environment to another without
impacting customers. UPI being a 24x7 rail, there is a very limited window to
perform these activities. On the first day of going live, we migrated the entire
data and successfully processed more than 5 million financial transactions and more
than 2 million non-financial transactions. Being an instant payment system, SLAs
are very important, and NPCI has stringent SLAs for the bank and keeps track of
every commercial bank's SLAs. Since our system went live with this bank, their
technical declines are almost at 0%, and the system is always available for them to
process transactions. This project execution is a perfect example of how we deliver
our mission to the customers. This has positioned us as a technology partner for
financial institutes who want to embark on their payment journey and accelerate
their business.
