Receive Payments via Bank Transfer

Enable customers to make payments using the bank transfer method for Payment Links.

You can now accept payments from customers in the form of bank transfers, using the Razorpay Payment Links. Customers can select Bank Transfer as the payment method on Checkout and copy your account details. They can then initiate online bank transfers from their netbanking account.

Normally, businesses accept online payments from their customers via NEFT. However, the payment reconciliation process requires a lot of time and manual efforts. Razorpay virtual accounts allow you to accept payments through online methods such as NEFT, RTGS and IMPS via transactions made to a virtual bank account. Since each Payment Link is associated with a virtual account, payment reconciliation is effortless.
