Slice’s super card serves as an alternative for credit cards with lower credit limits making people eligible to benefit from paying later. Slice’s founder and CEO Rajan Bajaj said that the startup plans to invest in technology and product design and add more products supporting Unified Payments Interface (UPI). “We have reached a phase where our profits are growing fast. Several customers will start using our revenue-generating card products. Existing card customers as well use UPI for their payments,” Bajaj stated.
