The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) needs to move towards creating an environment whereby for pull payments effected on behalf of merchants, the acquirer banks/Payment Aggregators (PAs) are not allowed to push consumers to pay for a payment service, according to a study by an IIT Professor.
Pull payments entail a recipient (for example a merchant) requesting payment. Ashish Das, Professor, Department of Mathematics, IIT-Bombay, in his study, ‘Charging Consumers for Merchant Payments’, emphasised that consumers have a relationship only with the core merchant and the issuer bank (that issues cards).
