Hitachi Payment Services, an integrated payment solutions provider in India, launched its digital payments innovation hub to collaborate with fintech startups across India and the extended Asia-Pacific region.

The partnership’s primary objective is to bring innovative products and platforms into the Hitachi Payments ecosystem. It seeks to provide startups with the capital, integration with the Hitachi Payments stack, and access to its customer network and platform to launch and scale up.
