Paytm Launches ‘Paytm Health Saathi’ for Merchant Partners in Noida

Noida-based fintech company, Paytm, has introduced a new health and income protection plan called ‘Paytm Health Saathi’ for its merchant partners. This plan is available on the ‘Paytm for Business’ app and aims to safeguard the wellbeing of merchants, ensuring their health and business continuity.

The plan starts at just Rs 35 per month and offers a range of services including unlimited doctor teleconsultation, in-person doctor visits (OPD) within its partner network, and income protection cover in case of business interruptions due to accidents, natural calamities, or strikes.

Paytm has partnered with MediBuddy to provide additional benefits such as discounts at leading pharmacies and on diagnostic tests. A Paytm spokesperson stated, “This initiative is part of our mission to equip them with comprehensive and affordable coverage that supports their continued operations.”

Since its launch in May, more than 3000 merchant partners have benefited from the ‘Paytm Health Saathi’ pilot program. Following its early success, the service was made available to all merchants earlier this month.

Paytm is India’s leading mobile payments and financial services distribution company.
