eSewa
Nepal's largest and most established digital wallet, widely used for payments, transfers and bill payments. About eSewa: eSewa is Nepal's original and most widely adopted digital wallet, letting users make payments, transfer money and pay bills through a wallet linked to a phone number, accepted across a vast network of merchants nationwide. Key Features: QR Code and Online Payments: Pay at participating retailers and online merchants directly from the app. P2P Transfers: Send money to other eSewa users using their phone number or eSewa ID. Bill Payment Integration: Pay utility bills, mobile top-ups, and a wide range of other recurring payments within the app. Extensive Merchant Network: One of the most widely accepted digital wallets across Nepali businesses. How to Get Started: Download the eSewa app and register with a local phone number. Link a bank account or use a supported top-up method to add funds to your wallet. Scan a merchant's QR code or transfer to another user's ID to pay. Use in-app bill payment features for recurring expenses. Important Notice: As a wallet-based service tied to a local phone number, eSewa is designed primarily for residents rather than short-term visitors without a local SIM.
