Often termed as an e-wallet or mobile wallet, the digital wallet is a platform that allows users to store money, make payments, and carry out financial transactions in a manner that is easy and convenient. It is basically a prepaid account in which the users have to load money before carrying out any kind of transaction.

As digitization started taking over in the financial sector, the need to carry out transactions in a digital manner rather than a conventional manner increased significantly. Since digital wallets are easy, and convenient, they are in the trend of replacing the conventional method of payment.

The rise of digital wallet apps has changed the way people carry out financial transactions. Digital wallets are not only convenient to use but also safer than traditional or conventional type wallets. In order to avail the services, the users are required to download the specific apps created by banks or trusted third parties.

The trend of moving ahead towards a cashless economy has surged rapidly making Covid 19 or the pandemic situation one of the contributing factor for the same. Nationwide lockdown and travel restriction resulted in unexpected demand for contactless or cashless transaction which led to increased dependency on digital wallet. From going truly contactless with mobile payments to carrying out banking transaction everything has been made seamless with digital wallets. Whether it be paying electricity bills or mobile recharge, you name it and everything is just in your fingertips.

While listing out the contributing factors towards such an exponential surge in the digital wallet sector, availability of smartphones at a cheaper rate, growth of internet broadband, and easy access to banking services are few that cannot be disregarded.

The era of digital wallets started around 2009 in Nepal since then there has been a significant spike in the digital sector of the country. The Covid-19 pandemic and nationwide lockdown catapulted the trend forcing users to adopt digital mode of receiving and making payments. As per the data released by Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB), a transaction worth Rs.36.86 trillion was transacted digitally in the first 9 months of the fiscal year 2077-2078 which depicts an increment of 26.21% as compared to last FY. It is estimated that currently there are about 4 million digital wallet users in Nepal who have shifted from ATM/credit cards to e-banking and mobile banking to M-wallet.

Today, Nepal has a handful of digital wallets that have played an important role in accelerating digital payment activities in the country. One of the most preferred digital wallets in the country has to be IME pay, a product of IME Digital Solution, which has more than 100 banking partners and 2500+ agent network. The one and only digital wallet in the country that accepts all kinds of QR payments, IME Pay has three different apps suitable for different groups of users namely: IME Pay Customer app, IME Pay Merchant app, and IME Pay Agent App.

The digital literacy awareness campaigns by fintech companies, incentive-based strategies built to convert the unbanked population to banked and the initiation to acquire new users by private players have led to successful changes in the digital economy. Nepal’s economy is in the path of digitization and a healthy digital economy can help in empowering Nepalese across all income strata.

With a history of age-old relationships in trade and commerce, India and Nepal’s relationship is characterized by open borders and deep-rooted cultural similarity. Enjoying excellent bilateral ties, these two countries are not just dependent on one another politically, and socially but also economically.

The firm foundation of the bilateral relationship has to be the country’s commitment to the principles of peaceful existence, sovereignty, and economic dependency. People of both countries enjoy free movement across borders for different purposes of life: education, employment, religious enlightenment, travel, tours, and many more.

Article 7 of the Treaty which states that nationals of one country in the territories of the other will be granted the same privileges in the matter of residence, ownership of property, and participation in trade and commerce has fueled the migration tendency of the Nepalese population to India and vice-versa.

The tendency of Nepalese to move to India for work purposes dates back to the time when Nepalese were recruited as ‘Gurkhas’ in the British Indian army after the Anglo-Nepal war of 1814-15. Today, the majority of Nepalese population move to different states of India for employment purposes more so to uplift the living standard of their families back home.

Presently, it is estimated that nearly 3 million Nepalese diasporas are working in different sectors in different states of India which indeed is a huge number and these diasporas send a major portion of their earnings back home to their families in order to meet their livelihood needs and improve their quality of life.

When it comes to employment type, these Nepalese diasporas are engaged in wide sectors ranging from Indian government officers to factory workers, restaurant owners, coal mine workers, and so on. Despite the fact that a small percentage of Nepalese workers work in government, and private offices, a large percentage of the same work in hospitality, construction, and mining industries even if it means that those workers are below their skills and capabilities.

However, one of the many reasons for India being one of the largest remittance-generating countries for Nepal has to be the huge number of Nepalese migrants moving across the border making Indo-Nepal remittance a vital factor for the economic growth of the country. In terms of data, during the year 2019-2020, almost 14.2% of the total remittance amount was received solely from India i.e. Rs. 43.16 billion. Furthermore, it was estimated that only 70% of the remittance amount was received through formal channels enclosing the fact that 30% of the same was received through informal channels which indeed has been a major challenge for Nepal.

The diversion of remittance from informal channels to formal channels holds huge importance for a country like Nepal whose GDP is significantly affected by the amount of remittance that flows into the country. With the ongoing pandemic situation, the impact on the remittance sector is still unpredictable which has left us with assumptions about the global economy.
