Our Journey

Built by the Community, for the Community

Founded 2022

This forum was founded by a group of Banking Correspondents and fintech practitioners who were frustrated by the lack of a centralised, high-quality discussion space for AEPS, micro-ATM, and retail banking operations.

From troubleshooting AEPS transaction failures to decoding NPCI circulars and RBI guidelines, members have collectively built one of the most comprehensive knowledge bases for the BC ecosystem in India.
  • Practical AEPS & Micro-ATM Troubleshooting
  • RBI & NPCI Regulatory Updates Decoded
  • BC Agent Onboarding & Compliance Guides
  • Settlement, Dispute & Chargeback Resolution Help
