The competition is open to developers from around the world for submitting applications from May 04, 2023 to June 04, 2023 and the TechSprint will conclude around August/ September 2023.
RBI said when payments across borders become efficient, economic linkages, economic cooperation and economic activities across borders become easier, effective and efficient. Payments should be able to flow seamlessly across borders and between payment systems to promote competition while preserving financial integrity, it added.
