NTT Data Payments plans expansion into merchant financing and cross-border payments in India

NTT Data Payment Services India announced plans to expand its payments business in India over the next three years, focusing on merchant financing and cross-border payments.

NTT Data Payment Services India announced plans to expand its payments business in India over the next three years, focusing on merchant financing and cross-border payments. The company aims to diversify its offerings beyond traditional payment services to capture new market segments, according to livemint.com.

The company’s strategy involves a two-pronged approach: strengthening its existing payments infrastructure in India while entering new areas such as merchant financing, which involves providing credit solutions to merchants, and facilitating cross-border payment services. This expansion is part of a broader plan to grow its presence not only in India but across Asia, as detailed by Anshika Kayastha and Yadukrishna C S at livemint.com.

Merchant financing is emerging as a critical segment in the financial services sector, helping small and medium enterprises access working capital. NTT Data Payments’ move aligns with growing demand for such services in India’s rapidly digitizing economy. The company’s focus on cross-border payments also taps into increasing international trade and remittance flows, positioning it alongside other players expanding in these domains.

NTT Data Payment Services India’s roadmap for the next three years includes scaling up these new service lines while consolidating its payments business. The company’s plans were reported on August 2, 2026, by livemint.com, highlighting its intent to capture emerging opportunities in India’s evolving financial landscape.
