With digital India, our offline efforts have thankfully been replaced by a centralised, digital utility bill payment system.
BillDesk and BillJunction were among the first to develop an online payment platform called Electronic Bill Presentment and Payment (EBPP). In this system, agents such as banks and third-party payment platforms were onboarded on one side, while businesses like utility companies, telecoms, NBFCs, and insurance providers on the other.
A biller who had signed up with BillDesk was available only to BillDesk agents and their customers. If a biller wanted to be available on another channel, the agent had to do a new integration with the EBPP platform. This system was in use for almost a decade yet both businesses and individual customers had faced many issues using it.
Once one bill payments became popular, things started to change.
The Bharat Bill Payment System (BBPS)
The days of visiting offices to pay utility bills are long gone. While technology has simplified individual payments, managing multiple bills across locations remains a challenge for large corporations.
That’s where the Bharat Bill Payment System (BBPS) comes in, an unified payment ecosystem developed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and managed by the NPCI.
