It offers such products and services to target markets via a pan-India distribution network and proprietary technologies. The bank has grown its operational presence to cover over 90% of districts end September 2021.

The payment business operates an asset light business model that principally relies on fee and commission-based income generated from merchant networks and strategic commercial relationships. Each merchant serves the banking and financial needs of its community, which in turn form the backbone of assisted-digital ecosystem, referred to as "phygital" delivery model (i.e., a combination of physical and digital). The use of analytics on the data enhances the merchant's ability to cross sell the third-party products offered by the bank to existing customers, thereby increasing potential revenue and opportunity to further customize products and services offering.
