Airtel Payments Bank crosses one billion transaction mark

Airtel Payments Bank has surpassed one billion transactions on its platform in January 2025, reflecting a 47 per cent year-on-year growth in transaction volume across businesses, according to a top official.

Anubrata Biswas, MD and CEO at Airtel Payments Bank told PTI that the "milestone" underscores increasing adoption of digital banking and payment solutions. It also highlights the diverse business model that the bank has built over the years.

The bank caters to three key customer segments, urban digital, under banked, and industries and institutions.

 Biswas said "The bank's extensive digital presence combined with its deep distribution of over 5,00,000 banking points across India has been instrumental in making its services accessible to millions of customers in both urban and rural areas. Today, the Bank's monthly transacting users exceed well above 100 million,"

Airtel Payments Bank's 'Safe Second Account', offers an additional layer of payment verification, has been driving strong customer adoption and increasing transaction volumes
