Question 29

Who is this service designed for?

Accepted Answer

The service is designed for any Indian-registered business that exports permissible goods or services: e-commerce sellers SaaS and IT/ITES companies freelancers and consultants Digital content creators Travel portals EdTech platforms, Professional services firms (legal, design, research), and B2B merchandise exporters — all subject to RBI-approved purpose codes.

Collection — Funds are captured and pooled in the designated NOSTRO collection account in the buyer's currency. Invoice Validation — Merchant uploads the supporting invoice within 10 days (as mandated by RBI/bank guidelines). FX Conversion — The transaction amount is converted from the buyer's currency to INR at the live interbank rate at the time of reconciliation and payout processing. Settlement — The final INR equivalent is credited to the merchant's registered Indian bank account according to the agreed settlement cycle. eFIRC — The digital Foreign Inward Remittance Certificate is auto-generated and made available on the merchant dashboard within 1 business day of settlement.

Question 49

At what point is the forex (FX) rate fixed for my transaction?

Accepted Answer

Invoices must be uploaded during the transaction initiation, as required by the AD Category-I bank for FEMA/RBI reporting.

Invoices must include: buyer details, goods/service description, amount, currency, and the applicable RBI purpose code.

Question 51

How do I track my cross border transactions in real time?

Accepted Answer

All transactions are visible on the JioPay Merchant Dashboard with: status (Initiated / Authorised / Captured / Settled / Failed / Refunded), amount in foreign currency and INR equivalent, FX rate applied, buyer details, purpose code, invoice upload status, and eFIRC/FIRA download link. Full transaction data is also accessible via the Settlement & Transaction APIs/Reports.

Question 52

What happens if a cross border transaction fails?

Accepted Answer

If a transaction fails (card decline, network error, insufficient funds), no amount is debited from the buyer. JioPay's smart-retry engine attempts alternate payment routes before marking a transaction as failed. Failed transactions appear in the merchant dashboard with a failure reason code. Merchants can share a fresh payment link with the buyer for re-attempt. There is no charge on failed transactions.

Question 53

Is there any initial hold period on cross border payments?

Accepted Answer

For new merchants or first-time cross border transactions, JPSL may apply a verification hold of up to 7 business days to confirm transaction legitimacy and FEMA compliance. After the initial seasoning period, settlements proceed on the standard cycle. High-volume or elevated-risk merchants may be subject to a rolling reserve policy as determined by JPSL's risk team.

Question 54

What is the standard settlement cycle for cross border export collections?

Accepted Answer

The standard settlement cycle is T+2 to T+3 business days from the date of transaction capture, accounting for AD bank compliance processing and NOSTRO repatriation.

In which currency will I receive my settlement?

Accepted Answer

Question 56

Accepted Answer

JioPay settles to: Current accounts (any scheduled commercial bank in India) held in the registered business entity's name, or Exchange Earners' Foreign Currency (EEFC) accounts (where configured).

Question 57

Can I link multiple bank accounts for settlement?

Accepted Answer

Yes. JioPay supports up to 3 settlement bank accounts per merchant. A primary account is used for standard payouts; alternate accounts can be mapped to specific product lines, currencies, or transaction types. Changes to settlement bank accounts require fresh documentation and JPSL compliance team approval.

Question 58

What deductions are made from the gross settlement amount?

Accepted Answer

Deductions from gross settlement: Transaction processing fee (per merchant pricing plan). FX conversion fee (transparent markup on interbank rate). 18% GST on the processing fee. Any applicable chargeback reserve or refund reserve amounts. The net INR amount credited to your account will reflect all deductions. A detailed fee breakup is included in every settlement report.

Question 59

How do I access settlement reports and reconciliation files?

Accepted Answer

Settlement reports are available in the JioPay Merchant Dashboard under 'Settlements', filterable by date range, currency, transaction type, and status. Export formats include CSV, XLS, and PDF. Detailed reconciliation data is also accessible via the JioPay Settlement Details API, compatible with ERP and accounting integrations.

Question 60

How do I process a refund for a cross border transaction?

Accepted Answer

Refunds can be initiated from the JioPay Merchant Dashboard or via the Refund API. Refunds are processed in INR at the prevailing FX rate on the refund date (not the original transaction rate). Partial refunds are supported. Processing time is typically 5–10 business days depending on the buyer's card/bank network.

Question 61

What is a chargeback and how does JioPay manage it?

Accepted Answer

A chargeback occurs when a buyer disputes a transaction with their issuing bank, requesting a forced reversal — due to non-delivery, unauthorised use, or 'friendly fraud.' JioPay's chargeback management workflow: Merchant notified via email and dashboard alert. Merchant submits evidence (invoice, delivery proof, communications) within the stipulated window (typically 7–14 days). JPSL's disputes team represents the merchant with the card network. Outcome: funds credited back if won; disputed amount deducted from settlement if lost.

Question 62

What is the acceptable chargeback ratio, and what happens if it is exceeded?

Accepted Answer

Visa and Mastercard set the acceptable chargeback threshold at below 1% of total monthly transaction count. If a merchant's ratio consistently exceeds this, JioPay will issue a warning and engage the merchant on remediation steps. Persistent breach may result in temporary suspension of international card acceptance pending a formal risk review.

Question 63

What are the key regulations governing cross border export payments in India?

Accepted Answer

Key regulatory instruments: RBI Master Directions on Payment Aggregators (Sep 2022 and amendments). RBI Circular on PA-CB — DPSS.CO.POLC.No. dated 31 Oct 2023 (PA-CB-E/I framework). RBI/DPSS/2025-26/141 (latest amendment applicable to PA-CB). FEMA 1999 and FEMA (Current Account Transactions) Rules. RBI guidelines on EDPMS, R-Return reporting, and eFIRC issuance. Foreign Trade Policy 2023 on export proceeds repatriation.

Question 64

What is the mandatory export proceeds repatriation timeline?

Accepted Answer

Under the OPGSP/PA-CB framework specifically, funds in the NOSTRO collection account must be repatriated to the merchant's Indian bank account within 7 business days of receipt.
