Paytm Cloud expands its global footprint with Singapore Arm

This move signals Paytm's intent to strengthen its international presence. 


In a strategic push to strengthen its international presence, Paytm Cloud Technologies (PCTL)—a wholly owned subsidiary of One97 Communications—has incorporated Paytm Singapore as a fully owned subsidiary. The company subscribed to SGD 250,000 for 25,000 equity shares, underlining its commitment to deepen its global capabilities and explore new market opportunities in Southeast Asia.

This move is part of a broader Paytm international growth strategy that seeks to expand its footprint beyond India’s borders. Singapore, being a major fintech and digital economy hub, offers an ideal environment for Paytm to explore regional partnerships, strengthen cross-border merchant solutions, and integrate advanced financial technologies aligned with global standards.

The Paytm Singapore expansion follows another significant step earlier in 2025, when PCTL acquired a 25% stake in Brazil-based embedded finance firm Seven Technology for $1 million. That acquisition was aimed at better understanding the merchant ecosystem in Latin America, showcasing Paytm’s growing interest in emerging markets as part of its global fintech ambitions.

With both Paytm in Singapore and Brazil, the company is clearly pivoting towards becoming a key player in international fintech. These expansions enable Paytm Cloud global to tap into new customer bases, test innovative financial products, and position itself competitively in the global digital payments and embedded finance landscape.

As Paytm continues to scale globally, its cloud arm is expected to play a critical role in building scalable, secure, and localized fintech solutions for diverse markets.
