BharatPe is an Indian fintech company that sells digital payment and financial services to small merchants and Grocery stores.[2][3][4][5]

History[edit]

According to Peerzada Abrar of Business Standard, "BharatPe was founded in 2018 by Ashneer Grover and Shashvat Nakrani, with the vision of making financial inclusion a reality for Indian merchants."[6]

In 2021, the company acquired Payback India, a "multi-brand loyalty programme".[7][8]

In April 2024, BharatPe elevated Nalin Negi as its CEO, 15 months after he took over as the interim CEO and CFO in January 2023.[9]

2023 data theft allegations[edit]

In 2023 Ashneer Grover, who had left the company, accused his fellow co-founder Bhavik Koladiya of data theft. Grover claimed that Koladiya, who has since left BharatPe, had stolen data of 150 million users.[10] In November 2023, BharatPe filed a petition against Ashneer Grover for allegedly disclosing confidential information.[11]

Investments[edit]

BharatPe has a stake in Unity Small Finance Bank.[12]

Subsidiaries[edit]

PostPe[edit]

In October 2021 BharatPe launched the country's first BNPL (Buy Now Pay Later) product.[5]
