LYRA Connect:
LYRA has introduced ‘LYRA Connect’ solution, a connectivity platform to connect rural India using multiple technologies both wired and wireless. For example,
“Since LYRA acts as a managed service provider, KRA for LYRA is to ensure connectivity is available all the time on a particular device/location. Our mantra is Low Cost, Less Space, Secure, multi-connection, multi technologies, 100% availability,” said Mr. Mannoj Varma – Product Head at Lyra Network Pvt. Ltd.
Secure and stable connectivity is the most important component to deliver digital financial services to rural India. Today most companies like fintech, banks, the government are facing challenges to deliver services, products due to the non-availability of secure last-mile connectivity beyond metros. The government and M2M service providers and digital payment service providers are playing a critical role in crossing the last mile bridge and enabling digital financial services.
During the lockdown period, the Government of India made cash disbursement to the people of India, LYRA’s last-mile connectivity played an important role here. During the lockdown period, LYRA services were fully available and helped people of our country to make digital payments. Digital payment technology infrastructure has helped the government and people of our country in this pandemic to move funds and keep businesses and the economy going ON.
From LYRA’s point of view, the major step to deploy the connectivity solution is a feasibility study of the location. LYRA platforms make it possible to reach the device using LYRA static IP and perform actions on the POS.
LYRA Connect platform provides a real-time online dashboard to monitor the ongoing connectivity and traffic flow. With color indications, the LYRA portal has real-time tagging of SIM ID, device ID, location, etc. It tells the status of device/location connectivity in real-time and the time taken to process the transaction/request.
Mr. Mannoj Varma – Product Head at Lyra Network Pvt. Ltd. further added, “LYRA has enabled 16,00,000 POS/locations on its platform using various technologies. LYRA has done many turnkey projects like rural POS connectivity for India Posts, secure connectivity to process financial transactions for metro rail, POS connectivity for major banks, connectivity for bank branches, etc. LYRA is processing 10 billion connections per year.”

One such opportunity presents itself in the form of last-mile connectivity. Digital payments will undoubtedly have a better and bigger impact on the ecosystem with last-mile connectivity.

And the key to drive the digital payment ecosystem to the last mile is to create a healthy and highly secure environment to deliver online payments. Though there are a number of applications and solutions present to handle digital transactions, they become useless when it comes to lack of network and connectivity, making it complicated to enable last-mile users under digital platforms.
