Payment API infrastructure through licensed partners

Fintech platforms, wallet apps and e-commerce products use LOOKME payment APIs to collect customer payments (pay-in), send merchant payouts, query transaction status and receive real-time webhook notifications when payments succeed or fail.

Acquiring, settlement, KYC, card schemes and payout rails are delivered through approved, licensed financial partners. LOOKME provides the application layer: REST endpoints, webhook delivery, reconciliation views and admin tools your engineering team integrates.

Payment capability availability depends on applicable RBI regulations, licensing requirements, merchant category, transaction volumes and partner coverage in your target markets. We confirm scope during onboarding.

Important: LOOKME does not claim to operate as a licensed payment gateway, bank or money transmitter. Payment features are technology and API services provided subject to applicable laws, regulations, licensing requirements and third-party provider policies.
