PayKun is the dream come true of the five friends from the Bhavnagar city of the Gujarat state. The five founders are Prashant Kambad, Deepak Dabhi, Nikunj Yadav, Vijay Yadav and Nirav Solanki. They obtained their graduations in their respective fields and got into business. Prashan Kambad and Nirav Solanki are Bachelor in Engineering in the IT field, Vijay Yadav is also a Bachelor in Engineering in the Mechanical Field, Nikunj Yadav is a Bachelor in Computer Applications and Deepak Dabhi has a diploma in Computer Science.

After their respective studies, they all wanted to pursue business and were totally disinterested in doing a job. So they had started a freelancing business together starting from a small office. They required the payment gateway solutions for their business and applied for the same. But, they could not get even one approval as they were not registered. And the whole experience was frustrating.

They had this revolutionary idea of promoting and equipping all kinds of businesses with the digital payments and for that they developed a payment gateway technology of their own called PayKun Payment Gateway Solutions, which proved to be a successful startup, facilitating with the best online services.

PayKun is the combination of two words,’Pay’ meaning to make the payment and ‘Kun’ which is an Arabic word that means ‘to be’, together it means a payment gateway with an ease of access is now there for you.

The journey was quite challenging for them as none of them were from the FinTech experience, they had to learn and know everything from the very beginning. All research and requirements took around six months, which tested a lot of patience and after that, they got into the implementation part, that is, the development of the whole payment processing technology, the security compliances, legal compliances, banking integrations and RBI requirements fulfillments. After the domestic took the grip the international development was completed and launched successfully. Also, while starting up, they faced a lack of staff as they established their company in a tier 3 city. All in all, developing this huge technology and infrastructure is an achievement in itself.

PayKun bloomed under the management and leadership of the five founders and directors. Nikunj Yadav, the CEO has been managing the Server, Vijay Yadav has the experience in business development and so he is working for it and also managing the banking relations, Prashant developed the Paykun Payment Gateway technology, Deepak Dabhi, the CFO, is managing the Accounts, HR and Graphics, and Nirav Solanki as a CMO has the sales, marketing, and customer service departments.
