Paytm Mini App Store offers a dashboard to developers for analytics, payments collection along with various marketing tools to engage with the users. Paytm said this local India's app store aims to drive the Aatmanirbhar Bharat mission while keeping the digital consumer spends within India.
The company provides Paytm wallet, Paytm Payments Bank account and UPI at zero charges and levies a 2 per cent charge for other instruments like credit cards, it added. Paytm - which competes with Google Pay in the fintech space - said it has created the digital infrastructure to enable small developers and businesses to set up low-cost, quick-to-build mini-apps which can be built using HTML and javascript technologies. On Monday, Google - in a blogpost - said it had heard some additional questions from the developer community in India after posting its clarification to its Play Payments policy at the end of September, and was extending the time for developers in India to integrate with the Play billing system to March 31, 2022. There were also calls for a local app store to offer more choice to developers and consumers. Google faced ire from Indian developers with many saying the tech giant cannot force Indian app developers/owners to sell digital services by compulsorily using its billing system. In the days that followed, Google clarified its Play policies to say that apps that chose to sell digital content through its Play Store, would have to use Google Play billing system and pay a percentage of the in-app purchase as a fee. Paytm had alleged that it was "arm-twisted" by the search engine major to comply with its biased Play Store policies "that are meant to artificially create Google's market dominance". The app was later restored after the fintech app removed the 'cashback' feature linked to a game on the app. On September 18, Google had blocked Paytm from its Play Store for a few hours for violating its policy on sports betting activities. This would help users with limited data and phone memory.
