NPCI Bharat BillPay in collaboration with Ripple clients Federal Bank and Lulu Exchange&nbsp;announced the official mainnet launch of a cross-border inward payment bill service.
This launch is designed to allow non-residents of Bahrain to leverage digital payment services for payments in India. Previously, they had to rely on conventional payment methods.

<blockquote>
 We believe this direct bill payment facility will delight the beneficiaries as it enables a convenient, secure, and seamless bill payment experience
</blockquote>
Payments with the new service can be made either in offices of LuLu Exchange or through its application for smartphone devices.
