Frequently Asked Questions

Who needs a nodal account?

Nodal Account is a type bank account that is opened by businesses (intermediaries) and is used to hold the funds on behalf of its customers & vendors. A nodal account ensures that the money does not legally belong to the intermediary at any point of time. Nodal Accounts were introduced by the RBI (Reserve Bank of India) as a mandate for intermediaries such as aggregators, e-commerce platforms & payment gateways to ensure that payments so collected from customers are released to vendors without any undue delays.

criteria:

  1. You are collecting money on behalf of vendors from your customers
  2. You are sourcing the products/services and are not the manufacturer or creator of the same

Is there a need to open an additional account along with NODAL account?

Yes, a current account needs to be opened prior to opening a NODAL account. The current account shall be used for raising invoices and collection of fees from the client / partners. Other, day to day transactions of an intermediary such as salary payments, vendor payments, statutory payments, utility payments etc. will be made from a separate regular current account of the intermediary.
