Oxigen Wallet has entered into a tie-up with Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL) to enable the oil company’s users to pay using the wallet. “We are doing this in phases, and starting with 70-odd outlets in the first phase. These are across HPCL’s company-owned and operated outlets so that we can learn the user behaviour and make improvements and modifications going forward,” said Ankur Saxena, Director and Chief Mentor at Oxigen Wallet. About 70 outlets across Bengaluru, Chennai, Noida, Greater Noida, Gurugram, Kolkata, Mumbai and New Delhi have already started accepting Oxigen Wallet as a payment option, he said, adding that the companies plan to expand it to more than 2,000 outlets in the next few months. Oxigen will be getting a fee for every transaction that takes place, while it is also planning to expand its tie-up with other oil companies in the country. “This fits well with our offline transaction space and spreads our reach.”
