Inroduction

Overview

Applying for a new PAN card is one of the tedious tasks these days and is limited to a certain number of application points to avail of such services. In other words, what if a user wishes to apply for a new PAN card, then he/she has to follow an extensive process to do that? We are offering this as an API to our API partners, who can provide this service through their network. The idea is to get the PAN card creation available to all the API partners and their networks. This will help to circulate the base and options for the individual to get their new PAN number created without any hassle and at any nearby merchant outlet.

Goal

  • To help partners to offer new PAN Card creation anytime and anywhere.
  • Spread the solution for the new PAN card application in the wide range of retail outlet networks across the country.
