Introduction
Creating a reliable mode of utility bill settlement for the 21st century is very much something that blockchain technology has enabled. Nowhere is this potential disruption more prevalent than in developing economic nations, where reliable business services can be disrupted or subject to inconvenience and even fraud.

The Payportal Platform solves this very problem, creating a connection between Indian service providers and customers, utilising a public wallet linked to the mobile phone number of the owner. Retailers benefit from the symbiotic ecosystem as they can satisfy requests by customers to make bill payments in an easy, accessible and, above all, secure way. Utilising the advent and increased adoption of portable technology, such as mobile phones, means that the public can take advantage of and access the emerging 21st economic blockchain developments.

What is Payportal?
Payportal Services Private Limited (Payportal) is a privately-owned company established in 2011, under the jurisdiction and laws of India. Payportal creates a network between customers and service providers, processing online recharges, bill payments and domestic money transfers – all via a secure Payportal wallet. The company currently manages 80 distributors, and 2,300 retailers, processing 500 million rupees in payments in 2017 between banks, mobile and digital TV operators, utility companies and their customers.

Consisting of a team with over 20 people, Payportal is currently located in Delhi, India.

By issuing the PPTL token, Payportal will be developing a native asset to facilitate their cross-border payment feature and overall platform ecosystem. Distributors will buy tokens in the OTC market to participate in the business ecosystem, and users will pay fees in PPTL. Part of the PPTL token fundraising effort will be used toward their ambitious business plans – including; acquiring new customers, expanding business operations within Delhi and NCR, pursue new licensing deals, and continue to develop their Wallet and ecosystem.

Token
A key objective for Payportal is to raise sufficient capital to execute the company plans. The strong cash position will give the company a clear runaway to acquire new customers, expand within the current area of Delhi and NCR and other geographic markets (Maharashtra, Rajasthan, etc.), pursue new licensing deals, develop new technologies, expand our development resources and continue adding significant innovations to Payportal wallet technology. The PPTL Token (PPTL) is an ERC20 UTILITY token and aims to provide the development of the Payportal platform. PPTL can also be seen as a loyalty token allowing investors to show their affiliation with and support of the project. It does not represent equity.
