Why we picked it For a founder in India collecting money in INR, Razorpay is the default payments stack, and this is the official developer documentation with a sandbox you can test in before touching real money. It covers UPI, cards, netbanking, wallets, subscriptions, and payment links from a single integration, which is most of what an early product needs. This is the assemble, do not build answer for the payments part of your question.

Razorpay Developer Documentation

From Razorpay by Razorpay Reference docs, dip in as needed

  • Razorpay handles every payment method Indian users expect (UPI, RuPay/Visa/Mastercard cards, netbanking, wallets) on one integration.
  • There is a free sandbox and test keys, so you can wire up and verify the full flow before spending a rupee.
  • Subscriptions and payment links exist out of the box, so recurring billing is not a from-scratch project.

Why we picked it This comes straight from Razorpay, so it is the gateway itself telling you the exact pages it checks before it will activate your account, not a third party guessing. It lists the four policy pages founders forget (terms, privacy, a refund and cancellation policy with real timelines, and a proper contact page) plus the grievance officer detail that trips up first-timers. Read it before you apply so a missing page does not stall your onboarding.

Payment Gateway Compliance: What Your Website Needs Before You Can Accept Payments

From Razorpay by Razorpay ~10 min read

  • Indian payment gateways verify your terms, privacy policy, refund and cancellation policy, and contact page before activating your account, and missing even one can get you rejected.
  • Your refund policy needs concrete timelines (something like 5 to 7 business days), not vague phrasing like refunds at seller's discretion.
  • Your contact page needs a registered legal name, a real physical address, and a working phone and email, and you likely need a named grievance or nodal officer too.

Why we picked it If payments keep landing late, the fix is often to stop relying on the buyer to remember and set up an auto-debit mandate instead. Razorpay's e-NACH and e-mandate is the standard RBI and NPCI regulated rail for this in India, covering 40+ banks and mandate values up to Rs. 10 lakh, which fits recurring B2B retainers and subscriptions. It is a practical starting point for turning we will pay when we can into a scheduled debit, not a fix for a buyer with no money in the account.

Razorpay e-NACH and e-Mandate for Recurring Payments

From Razorpay by Razorpay

  • A registered e-mandate lets you auto-debit a customer's account on schedule, so recurring invoices get collected without chasing, OTPs, or reminders.
  • e-NACH is the economical rail for higher-value B2B collections (roughly Rs. 15,000 up to Rs. 10 lakh), which covers most retainers and subscriptions.
  • Pre-debit notifications and automatic retries recover payments that would otherwise slip, but the buyer still needs funds in the account for a debit to clear.

Why we picked it If you are building from an Indian base and selling worldwide, this is a practical, India-registered way to take card and bank-transfer payments in 130-plus currencies from 180-plus countries, with settlement and export paperwork handled for you. It is the closest fit for a founder who wants to stay on an Indian entity rather than incorporate abroad. Start here to understand the setup, then compare fees and eligibility against your actual customer mix before you commit.

Accept International Payments for Global Business (Razorpay)

From Razorpay by Razorpay Product page plus docs

  • Take global cards, wallets, and local bank transfers from an Indian entity without setting up a foreign company.
  • Fees and success rates vary by method (cards cost more than bank transfers), so match the rail to your ticket size.
  • Payment acceptance is only half the job: plan for FIRC / export proof and FEMA compliance from day one.
