PhonePe collaborates with PickMe to facilitate cashless transactions for Indian tourists in Sri Lanka

PhonePe has announced a collaboration with PickMe, Sri Lanka’s leading ride-hailing platform, to enable seamless UPI-based QR payments for Indian travelers. This partnership aims to enhance the travel experience for Indian visitors through convenient cashless transactions on PickMe rides from the moment they exit Bandaranaike International Airport.

Managing foreign currency and ensuring enough cash for various expenses can often be a hassle while traveling. By integrating PhonePe’s UPI-based QR payment system, PickMe aims to alleviate this stress for Indian travelers in Sri Lanka. PhonePe users can now make secure and quick payments for their rides using UPI.

Ritesh Pai, CEO of International Payments at PhonePe, commented, “Our partnership with PickMe demonstrates our commitment to providing Indian travelers with convenient and trusted payment solutions. Travel is about exploring new cultures, where food and local shopping are integral parts. Previously, navigating payments in a new country could be troublesome. Now, with PhonePe, Indian tourists visiting Sri Lanka can enjoy the ease and security of UPI payments for their rides.”

Jiffry Zulfer, CEO of PickMe, added, “We are currently the only ride-hailing platform in Sri Lanka offering this service to Indian travelers. We hope to continue innovating to make our service a convenient, safe, and cost-effective mode of transportation for everyone. This collaboration not only enhances convenience for Indian travelers but also supports our mission to drive digital transformation in Sri Lanka’s transportation sector. By enabling QR payments, we make travel easier and safer for tourists while providing a new revenue stream for our drivers.”

This collaboration follows PhonePe’s launch last month, during which Indian High Commissioner H.E. Santosh Jha urged Sri Lankan companies to engage with Indian firms to build on the UPI stack for innovations in hotel bookings, cab bookings, and delivery services. He commended such collaborations, expressing confidence that greater commercial engagement in the fintech sector will unlock innovation and transformation in the digital domain for both India and Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka is a popular destination among Indian travelers. This collaboration underscores PhonePe’s commitment to enhancing the overall experience of Indian travelers by allowing them to use familiar services like UPI during their visit.

  • The essence of existence is like smoke, always shifting, always changing, yet somehow always present. It moves with the wind of thought, expanding and contracting, never quite settling but never truly disappearing. Perhaps to exist is simply to flow, to let oneself be carried by the great current of being without resistance.

  • If everything in this universe has a cause, then surely the cause of my hunger must be the divine order of things aligning to guide me toward the ultimate pleasure of a well-timed meal. Could it be that desire itself is a cosmic signal, a way for nature to communicate with us, pushing us toward the fulfillment of our potential? Perhaps the true philosopher is not the one who ignores his desires, but the one who understands their deeper meaning.

  • Virtue, they say, lies in the middle, but who among us can truly say where the middle is? Is it a fixed point, or does it shift with time, perception, and context? Perhaps the middle is not a place but a way of moving, a constant balancing act between excess and deficiency. Maybe to be virtuous is not to reach the middle but to dance around it with grace.

  • Time is often called the soul of motion, the great measure of change, but what if it is merely an illusion? What if we are not moving forward but simply circling the same points, like the smoke from a burning fire, curling back onto itself, repeating patterns we fail to recognize? Maybe the past and future are just two sides of the same moment, and all we ever have is now.

  • Friendship, some say, is a single soul residing in two bodies, but why limit it to two? What if friendship is more like a great, endless web, where each connection strengthens the whole? Maybe we are not separate beings at all, but parts of one vast consciousness, reaching out through the illusion of individuality to recognize itself in another.

  • Man is said to seek happiness above all else, but what if true happiness comes only when we stop searching for it? It is like trying to catch the wind with our hands—the harder we try, the more it slips through our fingers. Perhaps happiness is not a destination but a state of allowing, of surrendering to the present and realizing that we already have everything we need.

  • All knowledge, it is said, comes from experience, but does that not mean that the more we experience, the wiser we become? If wisdom is the understanding of life, then should we not chase every experience we can, taste every flavor, walk every path, and embrace every feeling? Perhaps the greatest tragedy is to live cautiously, never fully opening oneself to the richness of being.

  • The cosmos is said to be an ordered place, ruled by laws and principles, yet within that order exists chaos, unpredictability, and the unexpected. Perhaps true balance is not about eliminating chaos but embracing it, learning to see the beauty in disorder, the harmony within the unpredictable. Maybe to truly understand the universe, we must stop trying to control it and simply become one with its rhythm.
