Beeda Pay / Digital Wallet?
A digital wallet refers to software, an electronic device, or an online service that enables individuals or businesses to make transactions electronically. It stores the payment information of users for different payment modes on various websites, along with other items such as gift coupons and peer to peer. A digital wallet is also known as an e-wallet.
traditionally carried in the form of a smartphone app, a digital wallet can also exist in other forms, such as a desktop. However, the mobile app is the most popular version of the digital wallet, owing to its mobility and flexibility.
Digital wallets are not only convenient to use in certain cases but also safer than traditional wallets. Users of digital wallets need to download the specific apps created by banks or trusted third parties to avail of the service.

Types of Digital Wallets
The following are the three types of digital wallets:
1. Closed Wallet
A company selling products and/or services can develop a closed wallet for customers. Users of a closed wallet can use the funds stored to
make transactions with only the issuer of the wallet. The money from cancellations, returns, or refunds is stored in the wallets. Amazon Pay is an
example of a closed wallet.
2. Semi-closed Wallet
A semi-closed wallet allows users to make transactions at listed merchants and locations. Although the coverage area of such wallets is restricted, both
online and offline buying can be done through the wallets. However, merchants need to enter into agreements or contracts with the issuers for
accepting payments from the mobile wallets.
3. Open Wallet
Banks or institutes partnered with banks issue open wallets. Users with open wallets can use them for all transactions allowed with a semi-closed wallet
in addition to withdrawal of funds from banks and ATMs and transfer of funds.
Beeda pay/ wallet falls within a open wallet criteria

Mobile wallet owners should have a variety of options for sending and receiving personal or business money with just a few clicks wherever they are and whenever they need.
3. Bill Payments/ Mobile recharge
This is one of the critical mobile wallet features because people today prefer to pay every bill online – utilities, mortgages, loans, rent, tuition, to name a few.

Furthermore, a mobile wallet is safer than carrying all your cards with you because it doesn’t store card numbers. Instead, card data is encrypted with high-grade security.
5. Merchant Payments via Contactless Technologies (NFC or QR code Scanning)
Needless to say, in our digital world, more and more merchants have started to realize the need for deploying various technologies that accept digital wallets.
Retail clients can make in-store payments using Beeda pay via contactless methods like near-field communication (NFC) and QR-code.
NFC is a contactless remote technology that works within a close distance (up to 10 cm) and provides people with secure payment between POS devices and smartphones.
QR code is short for Quick Response code and is very similar to a barcode. The user can easily scan the QR code via the camera on a smartphone. The smartphone interprets the barcode, and a related application or website opens.
Considering the ever-increasing user demand for contactless transfers and the convenience it offers, providing NFC and QR payment is a must-have wallet feature.
6. Security
When you provide mobile financial services, security comes first. Money transactions have to be safe and secure from end to end.
Beeda Mobile wallets is secured with plenty of robust technologies, such as tokenization, passwords, biometrics, security questions, point-to-point encryption, out-of-band authentication, and one-time password (OTP) via SMS.
Despite the fact that digital wallets are more secure than credit cards, security concerns remain the main obstacle to wallet adoption by consumers.
This is why you need to provide your customers with an m-wallet app that is packed with powerful security capabilities.
