In Conversation with the Sorcerer of Online Payment

What do you think are the key concerns for an e-commerce business?

Credit card usage is a very important concern for anyone in this business arena. Ensuring security is of utmost importance for seamless online transactions. So having state of the art technology such as PCI compliance is essential today. For example, Allied Wallet’s Next Generation platform – a virtual platform, ensures this. It is certified and all that the clients need to do is fix their security codes and password and the rest is taken care of by us.

Do you notice any competitors in the market?

PayPal is a probable head to head competitor. But they have a different infrastructure and we have a global approach with different capabilities and better flexibility. That apart, we notice a lot of companies coming and going. It takes a lot of patience to stick around and maintain a business and after the initial enthusiasm fades way, very few enterprises manage to retain their position in the market. In the past five years alone, more than 1200 e-commerce start-ups were established and they were soon out from the market, especially after the financial crisis in the world economy. But that tells you that there are entrepreneurs eager to get e-commerce companies up and running. There is definitely talent and vision, but what is required more, is security.

Where do you see your future market lying in? if you have any plans for expansion? Do you think there should be any regulatory or policy changes in the approach towards e-commerce businesses?

India, Brazil and the Gulf region are progressing very fast in the e-commerce space as their access to Wi-Fi, internet, digital money, talented individuals, etc, keeps increasing. In fact, by 2020, there will be huge market gains from these regions and we definitely want to be a part of this move. And as far as the market environment is concerned, I firmly believe there should be more flexibility in terms of the bank’s approach to e-commerce. There is a lack of understanding as to what the business actually is and have not invested in this technology itself – the gateway platform and rely on outsourced companies like First Data for their requirements. They should experiment and avail facilities from companies like us.

What advice do you have for future or aspiring entrepreneurs?

Don’t give up. The roads are long, but follow your dreams because there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
