"Growth of new age businesses like OYO Rooms can be further accelerated if they are protected against online payment risks and frauds," said PayPal Asia Pacific regional merchant services vice president Hamish Moline.
OYO Rooms, which aggregates hotels in the budget segment, recently expanded to Malaysia and South East Asia.
"We are focused on utilising technology to enhance guest experience and solve customer problems. This tie-up with PayPal will assist us in delivering a seamless payment experience through reduced friction during payment process. PayPal is a global leader in payments and we look forward to their network supporting our growth," Abhinav Sinha, COO of OYO Rooms said.
