Mumbai: NPCI Bharat BillPay Ltd (NBBL) on Thursday announced a strategic partnership with Juspay to introduce a centralised switch and software development kit (SDK) for its Banking Connect platform, aimed at simplifying and standardising bank integrations across the ecosystem.
The initiative seeks to create a unified integration layer for banks and ecosystem partners, enabling seamless connectivity, faster deployment, and improved interoperability. By routing transactions through a central switch, the solution also facilitates structured data delivery, strengthening capabilities for risk management and fraud monitoring.
NBBL said the new framework is expected to significantly reduce onboarding timelines and bring consistency to integration processes, addressing long-standing inefficiencies in bank-tech collaborations.
“Banking Connect was envisioned as a platform to deliver a refined and intuitive net banking experience for consumers,” said Noopur Chaturvedi, MD & CEO of NBBL. “Its open architecture empowers banks and partners to build, innovate, and scale with ease. Juspay’s switch and SDK layer further demonstrate how the ecosystem can leverage this platform to deliver unified, bank-first digital journeys.”
The platform is also designed to enhance net banking user experiences, making them more consistent and app-like, while providing banks with the flexibility to innovate on top of a standardised infrastructure.
Highlighting the collaboration, Sheetal Lalwani, COO and Co-founder at Juspay, said the partnership underscores a shared vision to build seamless, secure, and standardised customer journeys.
“With the switch, our goal is to create a consistent, reliable, and app-first net banking experience for the entire ecosystem, backed by standardised industry protocols,” Lalwani said.
The rollout reflects a broader push within India’s digital payments ecosystem to streamline integrations, enhance security, and improve customer experience, as platforms evolve to support growing transaction volumes and more complex use cases.
