MobiKwik Launches Instant Forex Payments via Mobile App in Partnership with NBBL

MobiKwik, one of India’s leading digital wallet and UPI platforms, has introduced an instant Forex payment service in collaboration with NPCI Bharat BillPay Limited (NBBL). With this launch, MobiKwik becomes one of the first three fintech firms in India to offer digital foreign exchange services via a mobile app, expanding access to seamless and secure cross-border payments for users.

Introduction of Instant Forex on the MobiKwik App

The newly introduced Forex service enables users to buy, reload, or transfer USD instantly through the MobiKwik app using a T+0 same-day settlement facility.

The service is powered by Bharat Connect, which allows users to make payments through UPI or net banking at a fixed foreign exchange rate. For domestic deliveries, forex cards or documents can be dispatched from partnered bank branches, while for international transactions, funds can be transferred directly to a foreign bank account within the same day.

• Instant transactions with same-day foreign currency transfers.
• Transparent and fixed forex rates, eliminating the need to visit money changers.
• Secure and convenient payments via UPI and net banking.
• Seamless mobile banking experience, including topping up forex cards and sending funds abroad directly.

This service is particularly useful for students paying university fees abroad, families booking international travel, and small enterprises managing overseas business payments.
