Hi PH ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป, I'm Akash, the Co-Founder of Cashfree (YC S17). It's always exciting to share our latest product launch ๐Ÿš€ with the PH community and receive critical feedback and support. Brief background โณ: We launched our API Banking platform Payouts ๐Ÿ’ธ last year on PH. Payouts lets businesses send money round-the-clock โฐ and instantly to bank accounts, UPI, PayTM and cards with a simple integration in their product, instead of uploading complicated files on their corporate banking portals. Payouts is now used by thousands of businesses ๐Ÿ’ช for use cases like vendor payouts, wage payouts, bulk refunds, expense reimbursements, loyalty & rewards. More than 10 million accounts have received a Payout via Cashfree. Over the course of running Payouts, we identified ๐Ÿง new opportunities to improve the banking experience for businesses. Support for sending Payouts to users straight from the bank account of businesses was not present earlier. We also figured that businesses spend a good amount of time reconciling their bank account statements -- often across multiple banks -- which are not accessible in a user-friendly way ๐Ÿ˜ฃ Many debit and credit entries go unreconciled and often become a drag for finance teams. We created Payouts DIRECT ๐Ÿ™Œ to provide the best business banking experience to internet companies for key operations. Using Payouts DIRECT, businesses can link all their bank accounts; automate Payouts to thousands of users per day; pull and reconcile their bank statements and derive insights from their banking data ๐Ÿ“Š Payouts DIRECT connects your product or ERP to the banking system via APIs and removes the need to switch between bank accounts by tracking all banking operations on a single interface ๐Ÿ˜Ž Key Features: a) Link multiple bank accounts with Payouts DIRECT. b) Instant transfers 24x7, even on bank holidays ๐Ÿ– c) Let your bank account handle the scale of your business -- Send upto 1 Million payouts per day ๐Ÿ˜ฎ d) Pull bank statements for linked accounts. Run search queries using UTRs, account numbers, tags and remarks. e) Gain insights on Payouts and Collections e.g X amount was sent to payee Y in last 6 months OR total of XX amount was paid out as salaries in last quarter ๐Ÿ“‹ f) Fine grained access control. Grant portal access to new users on-demand ๐Ÿ›  g) Developer friendly APIs. Connect Payouts DIRECT with any third party ERP or software. h) Plugins for major accounting tools (SAP, ORACLE, TALLY) (Yet to be made public) Excited to hear from you all ๐Ÿ˜Š Do share your feedback or questions in the comment section ๐Ÿ‘‡

Looks super promising! Congrats on shipping! Do you guys do recurring international payments (without OTP)? If yes, would be a boon to SaaS companies based out of India!
Akash Sinha
@gradient_elephant You're right. This feature in the pipe-line. We do let you accept payments from international card in their local currencies, however subscription payment is not yet supported for them. Subscription is supported for Indian credit cards presently (i.e amount can be pulled automatically on-demand). SaaS industry is key focus area for us this year and we will be releasing new tools specific for them. You can share your email address via DM with me. We will reach out once we're ready to pilot.

@sha26 This will awesome, really. How about creating a landing page just to accept emails? I'm pretty sure you'll have a decent list by the time you launch.
Debarati Ghosh
is this the website is fully secure ?
Akash Sinha
@debarati_ghosh Yes. We use 2048 bit SSL encryption for data security and undergo annual security audit once a year. We also have internal infosec team who reviews new launches from security point of view. Thanks for asking this question and it would be helpful, if you can let me know the use-case for which you want to try this out. I can answer in more contextual manner.
