PhonePe Launches the New Account Aggregator Service for Clients
PhonePe Pvt. has recently unveiled its account aggregator services, made accessible through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PhonePe Technology Services Pvt. This significant development follows the company's acquisition of the NBFC-AA license from the Reserve Bank of India in August of the previous year.
To facilitate this offering, PhonePe has integrated the account aggregator service as a micro-app within its broader PhonePe mobile application. This strategic decision ensures seamless accessibility and a cohesive user experience for customers utilizing the platform.
"The account aggregator service will allow Indian consumers to consent to and share all their financial data, such as bank statements, insurance policies and tax filings, with regulated financial institutions or FIUs (financial information users) for several use cases, such as applying for loans, buying new insurance, getting investment advice, etc," the company stated.
