Announcing the partnership, Khaltis Director Amit Agrawal said,
With this tie-up, our customers, especially those who love ordering food online will have the unique advantage of making cashless payment through their mobile phone.
Nepals payment ecosystem is in the midst of a shift toward digital. We are seeing a surge in demand for online purchases as more people are feeling at ease paying for products and services via digital channels. And, at Khalti, we are continuously evolving and innovating towards building a hassle-free digital payment ecosystem.
This strategic partnership with Foodmandu will be instrumental in helping us push use cases that consumers are interested in. We consider this tie-up as another step towards digital and cashless Nepal. We are always committed to providing more value to our users and will be adding many more features and services on Khalti very soon.
Likewise, Foodmandus CEO Manohar Adhikari said,
We are glad to be partnering with Khalti and make its digital payment facility available to all our customers. Now, Foodmandu customers will not have to solely depend on physical cash for making payment. With digital payments via Khalti, we expect to get rid of problems associated with Cash-On-Delivery.
With this partnership, Foodmandu customers will be able to order their favorite food from 300+ restaurants in Kathmandu and pay using the Khalti app.
Though e-commerce and online shopping trend is rapidly growing in Nepal, the digital payment scene is yet to take off and Cash-On-Delivery is still the principal method of e-commerce payments. This partnership is expected to shift payments on online purchase in Nepal, from Cash-On-Delivery to Digital Payments.
This partnership for digital payment for online food delivery holds a significance at a time the government has just started receiving revenue and all forms of taxes online in Nepal. It is expected to push the adoption of digital payment in Nepal.
As part of the partnership launch offer, Foodmandu users will get 5% cashback from Khalti on each payment. Users will also get attractive offers in future on digital payment through Khalti.
