Payfuture Brings Local Indian Payment Methods to Shopify

Payfuture has expanded its payment infrastructure by integrating with Shopify, allowing merchants to access locally preferred payment methods in India through a single payment connection.

The integration enables Shopify merchants to offer Unified Payments Interface (UPI) and NetBanking, two widely used digital payment methods in India. According to the company, the solution is designed to simplify payment acceptance while supporting merchants entering or expanding within the Indian ecommerce market.

Supporting Growth in India's Ecommerce Market

India continues to be one of the fastest-growing ecommerce markets globally, driven by increasing smartphone adoption, digital payment usage, and consumer preference for domestic payment systems.

According to Payfuture, India's online retail sector is projected to reach USD 150–170 billion by 2027, creating significant opportunities for businesses seeking long-term growth across India and the broader South Asian region.

The company noted that payment localization, regulatory compliance, and platform readiness have become increasingly important for merchants operating in high-growth markets.

Integration Aims to Simplify Cross-Border Commerce

Payfuture said the Shopify integration forms part of its broader strategy to provide local payment connectivity through major ecommerce platforms.

By enabling merchants to accept familiar payment methods while managing compliance and settlement requirements, the company aims to reduce operational complexity for businesses expanding internationally.

“This integration makes digital commerce more accessible, scalable, and locally optimised for global merchants in fast-growth markets,” said Manpreet Haer, CEO and Co-Founder of Payfuture. “India is a vital market for ecommerce growth, and our infrastructure makes it easier for merchants to reach local buyers while maintaining compliance and operational efficiency.”

Expanding Regional Payment Infrastructure

Payfuture stated that it will continue investing in payment infrastructure and regional capabilities to support merchants entering India and other emerging markets.

“Our role is to help global merchants operate like locals in markets that are often difficult to access,” added Manpreet Haer, CEO and Co-Founder of Payfuture. “The Shopify integration allows us to bring that vision to life in one of the most important commerce ecosystems in the world.”

The latest integration reflects the growing emphasis on localized payment experiences as businesses seek to improve customer conversion, simplify cross-border commerce, and expand into high-growth digital economies.
