Paytm, the pioneer of mobile payments and QR technology, has launched two cutting-edge 4G-enabled payment devices, the Paytm Pocket Soundbox and Paytm Music Soundbox, aimed at revolutionizing in-store payments and enhancing convenience for small merchants.
The compact and portable Paytm Pocket Soundbox, no larger than a debit card, caters to mobile merchants on the move, providing instant audio payment alerts. This ‘Made in India’ device features a 5-day battery life, 4G connectivity, and a torch for low-light conditions, ideal for cab drivers, delivery agents, electricians, and cart vendors.
On the other hand, the Paytm Music Soundbox, doubling as a speaker for payment notifications, enables merchants to play music via Bluetooth while managing payment transactions. Boasting a 7-day battery life, 4G connectivity, and a powerful 4W speaker, this innovative device offers a unique voice overlay feature that allows merchants to hear payment alerts while enjoying background music.
Vijay Shekhar Sharma, Founder & CEO of Paytm, expressed their commitment to lead technology for small shops in India and stated, “As pioneers of mobile payments and QR technology, we revolutionised in-store payments with the Paytm Soundbox. We are driving innovation further with two new devices, Paytm Pocket Soundbox and Paytm Music Soundbox, both of which have been designed to bring convenience to merchants. Paytm Pocket Soundbox will be a game-changer for merchants on the go, while the Paytm Music Soundbox announces payment alerts and solves for a lifestyle experience. With these new devices, we continue to lead technology for small shops in India.”
