Powered by the Retail Payment Switch under the National Payment Switch(NPS), the NEPALPAY Request is the additional feature enabled in NPI through connectIPS to support pull transaction between the participating members.

Currently available through the connectIPS web interface for the users, this feature of NEPALPAY Request allows the receiver (creditor) to initiate a payment transaction for real-time debit of the required amount as pull transaction.
