Nepal Digital Payments Company Ltd. (NDPC), a joint venture of Nepal Doorsanchar Company Ltd. and Rastriya Banijya Bank Ltd., entered into an agreement with Nepal Clearing House Ltd. (NCHL) for collaboration to expand the digital payments ecosystem in Nepal. NDPC will be using NCHL’s National Payments Interface (NPI) for its upcoming Digital Wallet NamastePay. The agreement was signed by Mr. Krishna Prasad Bhandari, CEO of NDPC. and Mr. Neelesh Man Singh Pradhan, CEO of NCHL.

National Payments Interface _ Namaste Pay Collaboration

NDPC will be using NCHL’s National Payments Interface (NPI) as a single channel for interconnection with multiple underlying core systems including connectIPS and NCHL-IPS systems, corresponding to which NDPC will have access to the banks & financial institutions. This will help initiate transactions and facilitate its settlements for various business use cases on both real-time and deferred basis. Whereas, NDPC will be able to focus on expanding digital financial services to rural areas to cover the banked and unbanked population.

The agreement between NDPC as a telecom-led entity and NCHL as a BFIs led entity is a key milestone in the digital payments ecosystem for Nepal. It is expected to further strengthen the digital initiatives as outlined by the Government of Nepal under the Digital Nepal Framework and the policies of Nepal Rastra Bank. The wallet service that NDPC will be operating in near future for mobile financial services is currently in the testing phase. Also, once it is live, the service can be used through both online and offline media as well. The best part is, it can be used through a feature phone too. For this, NDPC has recently obtained a license from Nepal Rastra Bank to operate as a Payment Service Provider through “NamastePay”.

About Nepal Digital Payments Company Ltd. (NDPC)

NDPC is a public limited company, jointly founded by Nepal Doorsanchar Company Ltd. (Nepal Telecom), which is the largest telecom service provider in Nepal, and Rastriya Banijya Bank Ltd., which is one of the largest public-sector commercial banks in Nepal. This is expected to have an amalgamated strength of both reach, penetration, and expertise in banking &financial services. This unique combination aims to operate mobile financial services to provide digital financial services to the general public and help realize the national goal of digital society.

NamastePay: To be the Biggest Mobile Wallet in Nepal

NCHL has been operating NCHL-ECC, NCHL-IPS, connectIPS e-Payment, connectRTGS, National Payments Interface (NPI), and CORPORATEPAY as Payment System Operator (PSO) national payment systems, with the participation of over 63 BFIs as direct members and over 58 non-bank institutions as indirect/ technical members. NCHL has been providing its payment system infrastructure and facilitating BFIs, PSPs, PSOs, Govt/Semi-Govt. entities insurance companies, remittances, merchant banks, etc. to support the digital payments ecosystem.
