After a year spent regaining momentum following a regulatory freeze, Cashfree Payments is starting to see payoffs from investments it made earlier, particularly in cross-border payments.
-
In an interview with Ayanti Bera, co-founder and CEO Akash Sinha speaks about the company's recovery and how cross-border payments now account for a tenth of revenues. Excerpts:
2025 seems to have been an inflection year for Cashfree.
Yes, we had two big goals. One was to regain the momentum in domestic merchant acquiring after coming out of an embargo early last year. The focus was on rebuilding market share and onboarding large internet first brands. The second, and perhaps more meaningful, achievement was on cross-border payments, where we've been investing in since 2021, and they are now beginning to show results.
How has been the top line growth this year?
