Paytm is known as the holy grail for UPI payments. The fintech giant started in 2010 and has emerged as a market leader and pioneer of QR code payments. However, after its launch as a payment gateway, it went overboard to explore many other industries.

Without further ado, let’s look at the gigantic outreach of Paytm that works beyond the UPI.
