Super.money, a financial service platform spun off last year by Walmart-owned Flipkart, has quietly partnered with payments infrastructure firm Juspay. This partnership supports its expansion into direct-to-consumer checkout as it targets one hundred million dollars in annual revenue by 2026.
The collaboration comes as Juspay works to rebuild momentum after facing pushback from major payment companies earlier this year. That dispute complicated its fundraising efforts.
Last week, Super.money launched its D2C checkout product, Super.money Breeze. The product promises merchants a one-click checkout experience and aims to speed up online purchases by removing one-time passwords and repeated logins. The company did not disclose any technology partners, but it has been learned that Juspay is powering the payments infrastructure for this new offering.
This move could help Super.money reach new customers and build visibility among D2C brands. It expands its presence beyond Flipkart’s existing user base and makes the brand more familiar to online shoppers. While Super.money already benefits from Flipkart’s distribution, the checkout product signals an effort to establish a standalone identity in the broader e-commerce ecosystem.
The partnership is even more significant for Juspay, which has been working to regain ground with Indian merchants. The SoftBank-backed company lost a number of them after payment gateways, including Razorpay and Cashfree Payments, moved away from Juspay in January. Those gateways urged merchants to adopt their in-house payment processing tools instead. The fallout affected Juspay’s fundraising efforts. Its most recent round came in at sixty million dollars, down from earlier expectations of around one hundred million dollars, according to people familiar with the matter.
Juspay was once a preferred backend partner for payment aggregators, helping them reduce transaction failures through its payment routing platform. The company counts Amazon as a long-standing client and received a payment aggregator license from the Reserve Bank of India last year. But as competition intensifies in India’s digital payments space, players like Razorpay, Cashfree, and Flipkart spin-off PhonePe have begun limiting their own reliance on third-party providers. They are opting instead to deepen their direct relationships with merchants.
Super.money’s decision to partner with Juspay runs counter to a broader trend of payment players building and controlling their own infrastructure. But for a young fintech still expanding its reach beyond Flipkart, the move offers a shortcut to D2C integrations without having to build full-stack payment capabilities from scratch. It also signals Super.money’s intent to delve deeper into consumer transactions and increase payments through its platform.
Launched as a payment app in June 2024, more than a year after Flipkart formally separated from PhonePe, Super.money has since become one of India’s top five UPI apps by transaction volume. UPI is the Indian government-backed instant payment system. The app processed over two hundred million transactions per month for four consecutive months through August, according to data from the National Payments Corporation of India, the federal body that manages the UPI system.
In recent months, Super.money has surpassed large private banks like Axis Bank and ICICI Bank, as well as fintech players including Amazon Pay and CRED, to climb the UPI rankings. This is a significant feat for a newly launched app.
Super.money has also become a top issuer of secured credit cards in India, holding a ten percent market share, according to industry insights. These cards require customers to put down a deposit and are currently issued in partnership with Utkarsh Small Finance Bank. The company is looking to expand the business and is in talks with a private sector lender to scale distribution.
So far, Super.money has issued around three hundred thousand secured cards and is adding approximately fifty thousand new cards each month.
The secured card business is central to Super.money’s monetization strategy, helping it move users from low-margin UPI payments into revenue-generating financial products. While the company does not charge for UPI transactions, it uses that volume to onboard customers and cross-sell higher-yield offerings such as credit cards and consumer loans.
Unlike many other UPI-focused fintechs, Super.money has kept its burn rate low by relying on Flipkart’s distribution rather than heavy marketing. The company also operates with a lean team of around one hundred thirty to one hundred fifty people to serve its user base of over eighty million users.
For Flipkart, Super.money marks a renewed push into fintech after it formally spun out PhonePe in 2023. While PhonePe went on to dominate India’s UPI landscape, it now operates independently under Walmart’s broader umbrella. Super.money, by contrast, remains tightly integrated with Flipkart and appears focused on monetizing financial services directly within and beyond the e-commerce ecosystem.
So far, Flipkart has invested fifty million dollars in Super.money to kick off its business. The company is led by Prakash Sikaria, who was previously Flipkart’s chief experience officer for customer growth, marketing, ads, and new initiatives, and who also founded Shopsy. Sikaria also helped Flipkart acquire online travel company Cleartrip and led products including Flipkart Ads and Supercoins.
However, Super.money is looking to go beyond Flipkart and raise an external round. The firm is already in talks with bankers and is aiming to raise the round at around a one billion dollar valuation sometime next year.
Super.money is currently on track to close 2025 with around thirty million dollars in annual recurring revenue. The firm is aiming to more than triple that figure in 2026, largely driven by growth in its secured credit card business and personal lending, as well as through moves including the recently launched D2C checkout product.
That said, Super.money is currently in its early stages of monetization, and will likely face intensifying competition from established players like PhonePe, Google Pay, and Razorpay. All of these competitors are building or defending their own payments infrastructure. Its ability to convert UPI scale into sustainable revenue, especially through lending and checkout infrastructure, will determine whether it can become Flipkart’s second major fintech success or face the same ecosystem pressure currently weighing on its partner, Juspay.
Flipkart, Sikaria, and Juspay co-founder and CEO Vimal Kumar did not respond to requests for comment.
