Paytm (One97 Communications) is India's leading digital payments and financial services company. Through Paytm for Business it operates a wide catalogue of payment APIs covering online payment gateway, UPI, payment links, subscriptions, auto-debit, pre-auth, refunds, settlement, payouts, token gateway, bank offers, EMI, disputes, and in-store retail solutions (Dynamic QR, EDC, Point-of-Sale). Backend integrations are exposed via REST APIs at the secure gateway (securegw.paytm.in), with first-party Android, iOS, Flutter, React Native, and Web JS / Custom Checkout / JS Elements SDKs, and server SDKs for S2S checksum-signed flows.
Paytm publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: Payments API and Refunds API. Tagged areas include Payments, Payment Gateway, UPI, Payouts, and Subscription.
Paytm’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, GitHub presence, engineering blog, and 5 more developer resources.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Payments regime, so
Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite.
If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your
provider repo — the
applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it
carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts
themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already
holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in
front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created.
Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet,
not penalised by it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/paytm: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
