On 13th September, we did an exclusive preview of Cashgram-our latest release on Product Hunt, the platform known for surfacing the best new products, every day.

We got an opportunity to interact with product-loving enthusiasts and businesses, and share our story:

  • Why we built Cashgram?
  • How it works?
  • How it solves the problem of processing refunds and paying to users with a single web link?

It was an amazing experience getting into an engaging conversation with product enthusiasts. Here are some feedback.

 

The day ended with Cashgram being featured as #Top 3 Product of the day along with Design+Code 3 and Ship 2.0– a product from the creators of Product Hunt itself.

Here is a note from Akash Sinha (excerpt from product hunt) where he shared how we believe Cashgram can solve the common problem of processing refunds and paying users.

Hi PH 👋🏻,

I’m Akash, the Co-Founder of Cashfree.

Cashfree is a Y Combinator-backed bulk payout and payment gateway solution for businesses. Cashgram is our latest release — a weblink businesses can send users to collect account details and make a payment.

Unlike collecting money from users, sending money to users for cash-on-delivery order refunds, rewards, reimbursements etc has always been a slow, ops heavy process often prone to errors. It has demanded coordination between product, customer support and finance team to ensure timely disbursal. Businesses have to ask for a customer’s bank account details, card number over email, chat or phone which also makes many customers uncomfortable 😑

Cashgram has been built to make that process smooth, user-friendly and accurate. It reduces the ops cost for businesses to ZERO and lets customers receive money without having to share their account details with a business 😎

How It works

💻 Business sends a Cashgram link to the user.

📱   User enters their account details (UPI, bank account or PayTM).

💰  Payout is received in their preferred account, instantly.
