Now you can make ‘Traffic Challan’ payments through paytm

Popular online payment service Paytm has enabled vehicle 'Traffic Challan' payments system on its platform. This means Paytm users can now pay their traffic challans using the Paytm app.

The company has currently launched this service only in selected cities, namely - Mumbai, Pune and Vijayawada, and it will be expanded to other cities in future.

The Paytm app will now have a 'Traffic Challan' tab where user need to enter their vehicles numbers and other details and once the app verifies the details you can proceed to pay the challan.

 Customers will then get a digital invoice for the payment while customers will receive their surrender document via postal service by the region's police service.

Speaking on the announcement, Kiran Vasireddy, Snr. Vice President - Paytm said, "Traffic challan payments in India largely happen at select counters and in cash. We are glad to partner with the state traffic police departments to enable challan payments on the go. This is a new stride in our vision to add convenience to every payment use-case in the country."
