Hello PH 👋🏻 Cheq is a UPI payments app for NRIs and foreign nationals visiting India Using Cheq, international citizens can pay digitally at more than 55mn+ merchants across India, both in stores and online. Each year, around 15mn+ international citizens, travel to India Many of them struggle to make purchases because: 1) Most Indian merchants don't accept international cards 2) Indian merchants often don't have loose change. Why? Because India mostly transacts with UPI. Each month approximately 7Bn+ payments happen on the UPI network. 220 mn+ consumers and 55mn+ merchants are active on the UPI network in India. Cheq is the first payment app offering digital UPI services to foreign nationals and NRIs. Our app supports international phone numbers and we let you purchase INR via almost any international debit/credit card. A lot of hard work has gone into the building of Cheq and we're really excited to do this launch! If you know someone currently visiting/planning to visit India, please let them know about Cheq. Our team will facilitate priority verifications for Product Hunt customers and you can use our discount code (PH50) to enjoy a flat 50% discount on our joining fees.

Say goodbye to ATM visits and unnecessary foreign exchange costs. Wishing you success in simplifying financial experiences,
Congratulations on the launch, I was wondering how it is different from existing digital wallets and UPI solutions?
Now, travellers can witness the power of UPI. It's going to be a game-changer. Congratulations on the launch @sudshekhar02
Have to say.. This is one of the coolest products in recent times for Indian Fintech. V. High on value. @sudshekhar02 congratulations on the launch.
I run a chain of backpacker hostels across India and this is such a massive pain point for travellers staying and traveling with us. What are the rates for foreigners to add money to their wallet? And will there be transaction charges, because UPI normally does not.
I love the convenience factor of not having to visit ATMs or worry about foreign exchange costs. Cheq has definitely made my travels to India smoother.
Sudhanshu, congrats to you and your team on this launch. This will be super handy when I travel to India next. Would Cheq also work if I needed to make online payments to India while being outside the country? Think sending gifts or hospital transactions that do not accept international cards today.
Congrats on the launch of Cheq @manish_shukla & @sudshekhar02 🎉 It looks really helpful for tourists. Best of luck ❤️
