The story

Founded 2020 as a B2B BNPL provider for SME merchants on Indian B2B marketplaces, Rupifi has evolved into a broader 'B2B Payments Suite' / checkout platform serving brands, distributors, retailers, and marketplaces. The model is multi-lender orchestration: Rupifi sources merchants on partner marketplaces, runs underwriting and embedded credit journeys, and routes underlying credit to RBI-registered Partner Lenders (Muthoot Finance, NDX/LiquiLoans, Western Capital Advisors, Great Meera Finlease, etc.). Recent positioning emphasizes B2B checkout, split payments, and instant settlement for marketplaces alongside core BNPL.
