In short

On Paynancial, every successful payment is recorded and queued for settlement, and every transaction is tied to a settlement record. Payment Analytics shows what has settled, what is pending and when it is due, and settlement webhooks tell your systems when funds are settled to your account.

Overview

What settlements mean on Paynancial.

Settlement is the step where the money from your customers' payments is paid out to your business account. Knowing which payments a settlement includes is what lets a finance team close the books with confidence.

On Paynancial, a successful payment is recorded and queued for settlement, and every transaction is tied to a settlement record. That link — from payment to settlement — is what the rest of your reconciliation depends on.

Compliance in India

The RBI and NPCI rules around settlements in India.

A plain-language guide to the frameworks that may apply. General information only. Not legal, tax, financial or regulatory advice. It is not a statement of Paynancial's own licences or authorisations.

RBI

Payment Aggregator and Payment Gateway guidelines

RBI's framework for payment aggregators — businesses that collect payments on behalf of merchants — covering authorisation, merchant due diligence, how merchant funds are held and settled, and grievance handling.

Act of Parliament · RBI

Payment and Settlement Systems Act, 2007

The law under which the Reserve Bank of India regulates and supervises payment systems in India, including the authorisation of payment system operators. Businesses should consider the applicable requirements under this Act.

RBI

Turn Around Time (TAT) for failed transactions

Covers the time within which failed digital transactions — for example, a customer debited without the merchant being credited — are expected to be reversed or resolved across authorised payment systems such as UPI, cards and IMPS, and compensation to the customer when that time is missed.

Regulators update these rules by circular, so always check the current text at the source: Reserve Bank of India · NPCI. For Paynancial's own security and compliance posture, see the Trust Center.

Good practice

Getting it right.

  1. 01
    Reconcile against settlement records

    Match each settlement to the transactions and refunds it covers, not to a bank-statement total.

  2. 02
    Automate with webhooks

    Update your books when the settlement event arrives, instead of checking by hand.

  3. 03
    Schedule the report

    Have your finance team receive settlement reports on a schedule.
