Depends

Should I use Razorpay?

Online Payments India: Start Accepting Payments Instantly with Razorpay's Payment Suite, which Supports Netbanking, Credit Card & Debit Cards, UPI etc. - razorpay.com

· 1 month ago

Buy if you take payments from Indian customers and want UPI, cards, netbanking, plus banking and payroll in one suite. Skip if your customers pay from outside India or you cannot pass KYC verification.

Confidence

Medium. Based on 20 public sources; many are Razorpay's own pages or its LinkedIn posts, so independent signal is limited.
