PhonePe & Ola together plan to boost digital payment experience

Ola has entered into a strategic partnership with PhonePe, wherein, Ola users can now enjoy a seamless and superlative payment experience on the Ola app. This feature is currently rolled out on Android and will soon be available on iOS.

 

Catering to the growing need for contactless payment solutions during these extraordinary times, the partnership is set to empower millions of Ola customers by enabling a variety of payment options to choose from, giving customers greater control. This is a unique implementation where customers can use all of PhonePe’s payment instruments including the PhonePe wallet to make payments, in addition to UPI. The combined scale and capabilities of Ola and PhonePe will play a pivotal role in further fueling the adoption of digital payment solutions for the mobility industry.

 

The partnership also complements Ola’s recent safety initiative, Ride Safe India that encourages its customers to opt for digital payment channels to minimise risk and ensure a zero-contact mobility experience. 

 

As part of our introductory offer, customers can avail up to INR 200 in cashback on the first two rides when paid using PhonePe

 

 “As we navigate through the pandemic, we have noticed a significant increase in the adoption of digital payment solutions. With commute being one of the largest spend categories for customers, we wanted to encourage this shift through value-added services to ensure them superlative as well as safe mobility experiences. As PhonePe continues to drive digital payment adoption across the country, we are excited to partner with them to drive this seismic change that will enable us to move a step closer to becoming a Digital India,” said Subramanian, Spokesperson at Ola while speaking about the partnership.
