FAQ

Common compliance questions

What is Bharat Connect?

Bharat Connect is the brand identity associated with India’s Bharat Bill Payment System (BBPS), helping customers recognise trusted digital bill payment experiences.

Does buying OptionPay software make us a COU?

No. Software access is not a scheme membership. COU/BOU or equivalent participation requires authorised onboarding under NPCI / Bharat Connect rules and your banking partners.

Can we mention Bharat Connect on our site?

Yes when accurate and permitted. Pair product claims with a short licence disclaimer and link to grievance/refund policies.
