Beyond Fonepay and eSewa: What ConnectIPS Integration Involves

Fonepay and eSewa dominate the conversation on Nepali digital payments, but ConnectIPS solves a different problem worth knowing about.

What ConnectIPS actually is

A nationwide interbank payment system enabling direct bank account transfers — useful for larger transactions, B2B payments, and utility/bill payments where wallet balance limits don't fit the use case.

Where it fits in a product

For platforms handling larger-value transactions — real estate deposits, tuition payments, wholesale B2B orders — ConnectIPS can be a better fit than wallet-based gateways with lower per-transaction limits.

Integration considerations

Like Fonepay and eSewa, the integration needs proper callback verification and reconciliation — but ConnectIPS transactions often involve larger sums, so the cost of getting reconciliation wrong is proportionally higher.

Our approach

We evaluate which payment rails to integrate based on actual transaction size and customer banking habits, not just defaulting to the most talked-about options.
