India’s Axis Bank Teams Up with OPEN to Launch Digital Current Account Proposition for Businesses

Axis Bank, India’s third largest private sector bank, has partnered with the world’s fastest-growing digital banking enterprise, OPEN, “to provide a fully native digital current account journey for its customers including SMEs, freelancers, homepreneurs, influencers and more.”

This partnership “offers the larger business community access to Axis Bank’s holistic banking experience coupled with OPEN’s end-to-end financial automation tools for business management including payments, accounting, payroll, compliance, expense management and several other services.”

This is Axis Bank’s first-ever partnership “with a fintech player to launch a fully digital current account.” The product is “live on OPEN’s website.”

This digital current account product “will help customers save a significant amount of time and effort, as the authentication process will be completely digital using PAN and Aadhaar followed by a Video KYC.”

The comfort of a contactless account opening process “that takes away the hassle of paperwork with a zero document upload feature, makes this current account product significantly different from others in the market.”

Using this account, customers can “avail 250+ banking services and claim up to 50% cashback through grab-deals.” With this partnership, all existing Axis bank accountholders also get access “to OPEN’s all-in-one digital banking platform that is used by over 30 lakh businesses currently.”
