Why Businesses Looking for a Paddle Alternative Choose Transact Bridge 

Global companies need a Merchant of Record that moves with them across every market, every currency, every compliance requirement. That's exactly what Transact Bridge is built for.

Accepting UPI, PhonePe & Google Pay as a Foreign Company

For any foreign company looking to accept UPI, PhonePe, and Google Pay, there is one hard regulatory wall: RBI authorisation and Indian entity registration, which blocks Paddle and every other Western MoR. 

Transact Bridge is already on the right side of that wall. As your MoR across India, the USA, and global markets, it is the RBI-registered entity collecting UPI payments on your behalf. Your customer pays via PhonePe, Google Pay, or Paytm. Transact Bridge collects in INR, remits to you in your settlement currency. Your company is never in the Indian regulatory chain.

Full Indian payment stack, natively supported:

• UPI apps: PhonePe, Google Pay, Paytm, BHIM, Amazon Pay
• Net banking: HDFC, ICICI, SBI, Axis, Kotak and 50+ banks
• Cards: Visa, Mastercard, RuPay- India's domestic network
• Wallets and BNPL

Paddle's India GST Compliance Gap

Companies trying to sell SaaS in India without GST compliance headache hits the same wall: Paddle does not manage Indian GST, and India applies it to every B2C digital service sale regardless of where the seller is incorporated. 

Transact Bridge is GST-registered in India and is the legal seller on every Indian transaction:

• GST-compliant invoices issued under Transact Bridge's own GSTIN, not yours
• All GST filings, TDS deductions, and RBI reporting managed end-to-end
• No PA-CB license required from your side
• Full FEMA compliance- B2B reseller structure, legally clean

Your finance team never touches Indian tax.

Accepting INR Payments Without an Indian Entity

Using a payment gateway in India still makes your company the merchant of record which means you inherit GST registration, TDS filings, RBI reporting, and FEMA compliance. For a company operating across multiple global markets, that's an unsustainable overhead.

Transact Bridge's MoR structure eliminates this entirely across every market it operates in. It is the seller in India. You invoice Transact Bridge as a B2B cross-border transaction. You receive INR-sourced revenue settled internationally, with zero Indian compliance obligations on your side. The same clean structure it applies to US and global markets simultaneously.

Payment Acceptance Rates: The Revenue Gap No One Talks About

Card failure rates for international merchants in India regularly hit 20–30% driven by mandatory 2FA, RBI recurring payment rules, and issuer-level friction that no Western-built acquiring network can route around.

Every failed transaction is lost revenue from a user you already paid to acquire. Transact Bridge's local acquiring network and AI-driven retry logic cuts through that friction directly. More transactions complete. Revenue that was quietly leaking from your India numbers stops leaking.

Transact Bridge Across Every Market and Every Industry

Whether you're processing subscriptions in the US, microtransactions in India, or digital services across Europe, Transact Bridge runs the same clean MoR structure underneath it all. 

UPI Payments for Global SaaS: Including Subscriptions

Subscription billing in India is not the same as subscription billing in the US. RBI mandates require specific UPI Autopay flows, mandate registration, pre-debit notifications, compliant retry logic, that most global SaaS billing systems don't support. 

Transact Bridge manages the full lifecycle: mandate setup, RBI-mandated pre-debit notifications, retry logic on failed mandates, and cancellation flows. Combined with global subscription billing across the US and international markets, it is the complete recurring revenue infrastructure for SaaS operating at global scale.

Global Payment Solution for Gaming: India, USA & Beyond

India's gaming market is mobile-first and UPI-first with 500M+ active gamers, high transaction frequency, low per-transaction value. A global MoR for gaming companies that doesn't support UPI microtransactions is unfit for India's market regardless of how well it handles Western payments. 

Transact Bridge is built for high transaction volume, low-MDR UPI processing, fraud protection, and local compliance, running in the same stack as its US and global payment infrastructure.

MoR Solution for AI Tools: India and Global Markets

AI tool companies face high user volume, frequent small transactions, and GST on digital services across India, the US, and global markets simultaneously. 

Transact Bridge handles high-volume UPI checkout, GST on digital services, and RBI-compliant recurring billing in India, alongside US sales tax and international VAT globally. One integration. No local infrastructure investment in any market.

Global Payment Solution for E-commerce Across India, USA & Global

Digital goods and e-commerce businesses operating across India, the USA, and global markets need payment infrastructure that doesn't require separate solutions per region. 

Transact Bridge provides INR checkout with full UPI coverage, multi-currency settlement, GST invoicing for India, sales tax for the US, and fraud protection globally from a single platform with a single integration.
