Paytm's Soundbox Takes the Lead in Payment in India Paytm has introduced its innovative device and has swiftly gained recognition for its ability to provide instantaneous audio confirmation to merchants whenever a payment is transacted through a Paytm QR code. This groundbreaking feature has effectively nurtured a newfound trust between merchants and their customers, allowing merchants to validate successful payments promptly and thereby mitigating the risks associated with erroneous confirmations and potential customer fraud. Upon a customer initiating a payment through a Paytm QR code scan, the Soundbox springs into action, notifying the merchant of the successful transaction with a resonating alert in their preferred regional language. This real-time feature empowers merchants to focus on delivering excellent customer service without the constant need to monitor their phones for payment notifications. As per Paytm's annual report, the utilization of the Paytm Sound Box among merchants has been consistently increasing, with a fresh device being bought every six seconds. The consumer base has also expanded, with an average monthly transacting user (MTU) rising to over 92 million at the end of the June quarter.

In the heart of India's burgeoning music scene, electronic beats have become a driving force, drawing enthusiasts from every corner of the country. However, despite being a thriving market for electronic music DJs and producers, the genre still grapples with a lingering taboo. 👀 Prateek Pandey, the visionary founder of sLick, underscores the importance of brands and audience support for the scene to flourish. Yet, he acknowledges the uphill battle in gaining support from government and local authorities, attributing it to the genre's perceived taboo status in Indian society. 🤝 To propel electronic music into the mainstream, a fundamental shift in perception is needed. Recognition from authorities and a deeper understanding of the cultural and economic contributions of electronic music can pave the way for a harmonious coexistence with India's diverse cultural tapestry. 🎶 As the beats continue to echo, it's time to break the chains of taboo and embrace the richness that electronic music brings to India's musical landscape. 🔗🚀 . . . #musicindustry #musicbusiness #electronicmusic #musician #musicmarketing #linkedinarticle #linkedinlearning

The 7 Secrets to Success in Music: 30 independent artists data exposed. I've analysed 30 indie artists (100k-3.5M monthly listeners on Spotify) over 6 months and here are the results...

🎵 Which Music Stands the Test of Time? Despite some artists' continued success, disco's mainstream presence vanished swiftly at the beginning of the 80's. So why do some music acts and styles stay while others fade? Research shows that our music preferences are often tied to our youth. Factors like music abundance, repetitive listening habits, and nostalgia play significant roles. Data from Spotify reveals that most popular songs experience a rapid decline in listenership over the years. However, outliers like ABBA's "Money, Money, Money" maintain their appeal long after their release. Genres like rock and rap have shown remarkable staying power, with icons like The Beatles, Queen, and Eminem continuing to be popular. In contrast, some genres, particularly older country and certain pop acts, see quicker declines. But the 70's was best for musical staying power. So that proves everything used to be better. 😎 #music #memory #hits #sound source https://lnkd.in/eXYr2eRM
