EzeePay
An Emerging Player in the Payments and Utility Space, is Streamlining Banking Services in Rural India
Digital transformation has affected all corners of the financial industry, from payments to online lending. Fintech innovators are making headlines by harnessing automation’s dexterity to offer next-gen products and services toconsumers and businesses. To simplify operations, creative minds have painted the traditional banking sector with the hues of disruptive automated technologies.
Pushing the pace of Innovation and facilitating remote areas with digital services, a fintech player is forging its roots across the industry to leverage through its experience for Aadhaar Payments and Money Transfer services. EzeePay, India’s top fintech firm with headquarters in Delhi, offers a unique digital tool that helps people with no access to a smartphone use banking services smartly.
India has shifted to digital banking, and the countryside is catching up. They do not have access to a smartphon and therefore experience a lack of accessibility to digital services. The foundation of Ezeepay was taken over by a visionary leader named Shams Tabrej in 2018 with a singular vision to empower the rural citizen of India for their financial needs.
Since its inception, the corporation has been steadily growing. Recently, Jimmy Shergill the legendary actor and film producer has recently joined Ezeepay as the brand ambassador. His focus would be to support the business in raising awareness of the brand’s services in rural India through videos, leaflets, and live events and reach a wider audience.

THE AMBITIOUS LEADERS BEHIND THE EZEEPAY
SHAMS TABREJ – Founder and CEO
The man behind the idea, Sham Tabrej, began his entrepreneurial journey with a traditional family business. Later, Shams diversified his efforts into leading Ezeepay. It is a concept devised after witnessing banking services rendered from their rented home (by a national bank). It also resulted from the officials’ inability to ensure that all rural areas could access the new digital banking system.
The outstanding leader has ensured that many rural communities can get banking services outside their front doors thanks to his great observation and business savvy. His efforts are particularly concentrated on helping women over 45 and people with disabilities. In academics, he did MBA in Finance from Patna University.
