AGSTTL’s operations cover approximately 2,200 cities and towns, servicing approx. 2, 35,000 machines or customer touch points across India, as of June 30, 2018. The company has also started expanding its operations to Southeast Asian and other countries.
Factors like PMJDY, UPI, AePS, rising smartphone penetration etc. have created favorable conditions for wider adoption of digital payments acceptance in India. In the past few years digital payments have grown multi-fold. Technological advancements in the Indian digital payment services ecosystem are providing fast transfers, convenience and faster check out options to Indian consumers. Today, there are many form factors available for making digital payments for end-consumers but the lack of merchant acceptance points is still a deterrent in non-metro cities.
As one of the leading providers of payment solutions in India, AGS Transact Technologies Limited aims to provide innovative & customized payment solutions to its customers; and facilitate an infrastructure which processes all the popular modes of transactions on a secured platform, which is scalable to support the newer payment technologies in the future
