EU PSD3 / PSR (Payment Services Regulation)

EU Payment Services Directive 3 (PSD3) and the new Payment Services Regulation (PSR) — the successor to PSD2 — entered legislative process in 2023, expected in force 2025. PSD3/PSR introduces: Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) refinements; open banking improvements (mandatory PIS/AIS API standards); consumer protection enhancements; IBAN discrimination prohibition; fraud liability changes. India FinTech companies targeting EU payments market must comply with PSD3/PSR through either: EU e-money licence (EMI), EU payment institution (PI) licence, or partnership with an EU-licensed entity.

EU MiCA (Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation)

Mandatory for crypto asset service providers (CASPs) and electronic money token issuers in the EU from December 2024. Indian crypto and blockchain FinTech companies offering services in the EU (exchanges, wallet providers, stable coin issuers) must obtain MiCA authorisation from an EU competent authority. MiCA replaces the patchwork of national crypto regulations — providing a single EU licence for all 27 member states.

EU MiCA 2023/1114 · EBA MiCA guidelines · ESMA MiCA RTS

EU DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act)

Mandatory from January 2025 for all EU financial entities and their ICT third-party service providers. Indian IT companies providing ICT services to EU banks, payment institutions, and investment firms must comply with DORA — specifically: ICT security, incident reporting, digital operational resilience testing, and contractual provisions. DORA creates mandatory "DORA clause" requirements in all EU financial institution ICT supplier contracts.

RBI Payment Aggregator (PA) Regulations

Indian payment aggregators (Razorpay, Cashfree, Payu) facilitating EU merchant payments in India must hold RBI Payment Aggregator licence (mandatory from August 2023). EU e-commerce companies accepting INR payments from Indian consumers via third-party payment aggregators must use only RBI-licensed PAs. This creates a licensing gatekeeping function that limits EU FinTech India market entry without RBI compliance.

NPCI International UPI Global Expansion

NPCI International (the international arm of NPCI — National Payments Corporation of India) is expanding UPI acceptance globally. UPI is now accepted in UAE, Singapore, France (Paris — specific merchants), UK, US, and multiple other countries. EU acceptance of UPI is growing — France was the first EU country with UPI acceptance at Eiffel Tower and Paris tourist destinations. NPCI International partnerships with EU payment processors (Worldline, SIA/NEXI, Adyen) are creating the EU UPI acceptance infrastructure that Indian tourist and NRI transactions will use.

GDPR and Financial Data Transfer (India-EU Fintech)

India FinTech companies processing EU financial data (customer payment data, account data under PSD2/PSD3 open banking) face GDPR data transfer restrictions. No India adequacy decision currently — SCCs are the legal transfer mechanism. India's DPDPA 2023 (Digital Personal Data Protection Act) is being assessed by EU Commission for adequacy. PSD2/PSD3 open banking requires GDPR-compliant data handling as a regulatory baseline.

Sector risk framework

Risks · assessment · mitigation.

Risk	Assessment	Mitigation
EU PSD3/PSR licence requirement — India FinTech cannot serve EU payment market without EU PI/EMI licence	High / High	India FinTech companies targeting EU market must either obtain an EU payment institution licence (PSD3 — 6–12 month process, EUR 50,000–200,000 capital requirement depending on EU jurisdiction) or partner with an EU-licensed entity (white-label arrangement). Ireland and Lithuania are the most accessible EU EMI/PI licencing jurisdictions for non-EU FinTechs.
RBI PA licence enforcement — EU payment aggregators in India without RBI PA licence face regulatory enforcement	Medium / High	EU payment aggregators operating in India (Adyen India, Stripe India) must hold RBI PA licence. Verify RBI PA licence status before any India payment mandate involving payment aggregation.
EU DORA ICT supplier compliance — India ICT company serving EU financial client must comply with DORA (from January 2025)	High / High	Any India IT or FinTech company providing ICT services to EU banks, payment institutions, or investment firms must comply with EU DORA — mandatory ICT security, incident reporting, resilience testing, and DORA contractual clauses. This applies to both India-based ICT suppliers and India-EU data processing arrangements. All existing IT outsourcing contracts with EU financial clients must be amended to include DORA provisions by January 2025.
MiCA classification risk — India crypto exchange or wallet provider offering services in EU without MiCA authorisation	Medium / Very High	EU MiCA is mandatory from December 2024 for all CASPs offering services to EU customers. India crypto exchanges (CoinDCX, WazirX international — before FTX collapse) and wallet providers with EU customers must obtain MiCA authorisation from an EU competent authority before continuing EU services.

3 Ps · viability analysis

Possibility · probability · plausibility.

Possibility

Is this trade structurally viable?

Yes — India has the world's most advanced digital payments infrastructure (UPI) and a world-class FinTech ecosystem (5,200+ startups). EU open banking (PSD2/PSD3) creates structural demand for India's FinTech technology and infrastructure expertise. The India-EU digital payments interoperability opportunity is commercially enormous.

Probability

Will this specific mandate close?

Very High for RegTech mandates (EU banks face growing regulatory burden; India RegTech at 50–70% below EU equivalent cost). High for payment technology licensing (UPI technology for EU adoption is a government-backed mandate). High for India FinTech EU expansion (established India FinTechs — Razorpay, Cashfree — targeting EU market). Moderate for EU FinTech India entry (RBI licensing complexity is a real barrier).

Plausibility

Does the commercial logic hold?

Fully coherent. India's UPI processed 14B transactions/month in 2024 — more than all global credit card networks combined. This infrastructure knowledge and technology has direct applicability to EU open banking, real-time payments (EU RT1, TARGET Instant Payment Settlement — TIPS), and central bank digital currency (EU Digital Euro) development.

Performance

Target: 4–7 FinTech mandates per year. Commission: EUR 20,000–100,000 per mandate (10–15% on EUR 150K–750K Year 1 ACV). FinTech mandates have the shortest deal cycle of any technology vertical (3–6 months from introduction to first commercial contract).

Purpose

India built UPI — the world's most successful real-time payments system — in 7 years with a democratic, interoperable, zero-merchant-fee architecture that EU banks spent decades failing to build. Connecting EU banks and payment companies with India's FinTech ecosystem is not just commercially significant — it demonstrates what open, government-backed digital infrastructure can achieve.

Practitioner intelligence

What works · what doesn't.

✓ Success conditions

What works

✓ Positioning India RegTech (AML, KYC, transaction monitoring) as the primary EU mandate entry point — EU banks face MLD5/MLD6 AML compliance costs of EUR 10–20B/year and actively seek cost-competitive technology solutions; India RegTech at 50–70% below EU equivalents is immediately commercially compelling
✓ Using the UPI international expansion narrative with EU payment infrastructure companies (Worldline, SIA/NEXI, Adyen) — NPCI International is actively partnering with EU payment processors for UPI acceptance at EU merchants; being the introduction facilitator in these government-backed partnerships creates unique commission positions
✓ Targeting Lithuania and Ireland as EU licensing hubs for India FinTech EU market entry — Bank of Lithuania Electronic Money Institution licence is the fastest, lowest-cost EU payment institution licence for India FinTechs seeking EU market access without establishing a full bank

✗ Failure modes

What doesn't work

✗ Attempting EU payment market entry without EU PSD3 licence — no EU bank or payment company can onboard an unlicensed payment institution as a partner for customer-facing services; EU regulatory compliance is the absolute market entry gate for any India FinTech targeting EU consumers
✗ Ignoring EU DORA for India IT/FinTech companies with EU financial sector clients — DORA from January 2025 requires mandatory contractual DORA clauses in all EU financial institution ICT supplier agreements; India IT companies not DORA-compliant are contractually non-compliant with their EU financial sector clients from this date

Context & outlook

How this sector is moving.

Historical context

How this sector evolved

◆ India's payments revolution: Demonetisation (November 2016) + UPI launch (August 2016) = the catalyst for India's FinTech explosion. UPI went from 1M transactions/month (October 2016) to 14B+ transactions/month (2024) — the fastest-growing payments system in history.
◆ India Stack — the digital public infrastructure stack (Aadhaar identity, UPI payments, DigiLocker documents, ONDC commerce) — has been recognised globally as a model for digital public goods. G20 India Presidency (2023) formally proposed India Stack Global as a G20 digital public infrastructure initiative.
◆ India FinTech unicorns (21 as of 2024): Paytm, PhonePe, Razorpay, BharatPe, CRED, Slice, OlaMoney, Groww, Zerodha, INDmoney, Mswipe — all targeting international expansion including EU markets.
◆ EU Open Banking (PSD2, 2018) created the regulatory foundation for EU open banking — but EU implementation has been fragmented and incomplete vs India's UPI/Aadhaar unified stack. EU banks and regulators have actively studied India Stack as a model for EU open banking improvement.

Future outlook 2025–2030

Where this is heading

▶ EU Digital Euro — ECB's central bank digital currency (CBDC) project. India's e-Rupee (India CBDC) and UPI infrastructure experience positions India FinTech companies as technology advisors for EU Digital Euro implementation.
▶ ONDC (Open Network for Digital Commerce) International — India's open network for e-commerce interoperability. ONDC international expansion to EU and other markets creates new bilateral digital commerce infrastructure mandate opportunities.
▶ India-EU FinTech sandbox — proposed bilateral FinTech regulatory sandbox enabling India FinTech companies to test EU products and EU FinTechs to test India products in a regulatory safe environment. If implemented, dramatically reduces the regulatory barrier to cross-border FinTech expansion.
▶ ISO 20022 global payments migration — EU real-time payments (TIPS, RT1) and SWIFT cross-border payments migrating to ISO 20022 message format (same as India's UPI architecture). India's existing ISO 20022-compatible infrastructure creates technical interoperability with EU payment systems from Day 1.

India ↔ EU FTA impact

High impact

UPI-SEPA interoperability + GDPR adequacy for India = the two most commercially significant digital trade provisions of the FTA for this vertical. UPI international acceptance at EU merchants removes the payment friction for Indian tourist, student, and NRI transactions in EU. GDPR adequacy enables India FinTech companies to build EU-facing financial data products without SCC complexity.

Frequently asked

FAQ · FinTech & Payments Innovation.

What is India Stack and how is it relevant for EU FinTech?

India Stack is India's national digital public infrastructure — a suite of open APIs and platforms that enables paperless, cashless, and presenceless digital service delivery. Core components: Aadhaar (biometric digital identity — 1.38B enrolled); UPI (Unified Payments Interface — real-time, account-to-account payments, 14B+ transactions/month); DigiLocker (digital document storage and sharing — driving licences, degree certificates, insurance policies); Account Aggregator (open banking — financial data sharing with user consent); ONDC (Open Network for Digital Commerce — e-commerce interoperability). G20 India Presidency (2023) formally proposed India Stack Global — making India Stack APIs available to all G20 countries for their own digital public infrastructure. EU countries (Estonia, France) have expressed formal interest in India Stack components for their own digital infrastructure. EU FinTech companies working with India Stack (as technology vendors, API partners, or distributors) benefit from India's globally unique open digital infrastructure.

What EU licence does an Indian FinTech company need to operate in the EU?

It depends on the service: (1) Payment Institution (PI) or Electronic Money Institution (EMI) licence — required for payment processing, money remittance, or issuing e-money to EU customers. Regulated under PSD3/PSR. Fastest EU jurisdiction: Lithuania (Bank of Lithuania — 3–4 month processing); Ireland (CBI — 6–9 months). Capital requirement: EUR 20,000 (payment initiation) to EUR 350,000 (full PI). (2) Investment Firm licence — required for investment portfolio management, execution of orders. MIFID II. Capital EUR 75,000–750,000 depending on activity. (3) Crypto Asset Service Provider (CASP) authorisation — required under EU MiCA (from December 2024) for crypto exchanges, wallet providers, stable coin issuers. National competent authority registration. (4) Credit Institution — full banking licence (most complex, not typically the India FinTech route). Most India FinTechs start with Lithuania or Ireland PI/EMI licence as the most accessible EU payment services market entry route.

The AJG Global Nexus is a deterministic, flat-file PHP composition of the world's trade graph — every country, every FTA, every corridor, every HS chapter, cross-multiplied against cities, schools, careers, and the working life that connects them. Nothing here is API-fetched at runtime; nothing depends on a paid build pipeline. Every URL composes from the same registries, so when one count moves, every page that touches that axis updates on the next render. The platform is multilateral by constitution — never bilateral-narrowed, never region-locked, never behind a paywall. School is cool, college builds the foundation, jobs build the network, work builds the experience, and business is where it gets monetised in your name. The journey is the product, and the data above is the live receipt of how much of it is currently browsable.
