PhonePe IPO Timeline
Last Updated: 23 January 2026 11:42 AM by 5paisa
PhonePe, headquartered in Bengaluru, has grown from a UPI payments app into a diverse digital finance company. Founded in 2015 by Sameer Nigam, Rahul Chari, and Burzin Engineer, it has since added services across payments, lending, insurance, investments, and its own localized app store (Indus Appstore). With a mission to democratize financial access in India, PhonePe blends innovation with localization—its app supports over ten Indian languages and caters to both merchants and consumers from all walks of life. Its user‑centric design and broad service suite have made it one of the most influential fintech firms in India, with significant backing from Walmart.
