Copper Chimney is a renowned restaurant brand in India that offers an exquisite dining experience to its customers. It is a part of the Charcoal Concepts business vertical, which is a well-known hospitality group in India. Recently, Copper Chimney has made an announcement that they are the first restaurant brand in India to accept the government’s newest initiative, the Digital Rupee (e₹).
The Digital Rupee (e₹) is a digital currency launched by the Reserve Bank of India, and it is aimed at promoting digital payments in the country. Copper Chimney has taken the initiative to incorporate this new payment system at selected outlets across India. Customers can now make payments for their meals using Digital Rupee (e₹), which is a safe and secure mode of payment.
Karan Kapur, executive director at K Hospitality, said, “It has been an incredible journey that started 50 years ago in 1972 by Mr JK Kapur. We have come a long way, and aspire to keep evolving, innovating and build a stronger relationship with our ever growing family of valued guests, partners and team members. As we celebrate our 50th year, it’s a moment of great pride for our iconic restaurant brand, Copper Chimney to become the first restaurant in India to be selected to accept the newly launched Digital Rupee (e₹). This would have not been possible without our banking partners Yes Bank. With this initiative, we look forward to furthering our goals of providing convenient and innovative solutions to our guests, while supporting the government’s goal on digitisation of payments through path breaking options such as UPI and now the Digital Rupee.”
The decision to accept Digital Rupee (e₹) payments has been welcomed by customers and stakeholders alike. It is a significant step towards the digitization of payments in the country and will encourage more people to move towards cashless transactions. Copper Chimney is proud to be at the forefront of this movement and is committed to providing its customers with a hassle-free payment experience.
Copper Chimney’s decision to accept Digital Rupee (e₹) payments is a significant step towards promoting digital payments in India. It is a win-win situation for both the customers and the restaurant, as it provides a safe and secure mode of payment, and it also promotes the government’s vision of a cashless economy. With this initiative, Copper Chimney has once again proven its commitment to delivering innovative and customer-centric solutions.
