The soundbox is one of the most popular AQ merchandise as it allows them to hear confirmation of payment receipt and it supports all payment modes and multiple languages, he said.
Mr Sharma said Andhra Pradesh and Telangana have witnessed a 60 per cent growth in the last year and we are expecting significant growth in digital adoption from this region in 2020 as well.
