The article currently does not mention Zaakpay, MobiKwik's B2B payments subsidiary. Proposed addition to the history section (under 2025) or a new "Subsidiaries" section: "MobiKwik's subsidiary Zaakpay received a certificate of authorisation from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) in April 2025 to operate as an online payment aggregator. Zaakpay had previously received in-principle authorisation from the RBI in October 2023."

Proposed change: Replace the existing figures with — "As of Q2 FY2026, MobiKwik reported a registered user base of 183.5 million and a merchant network of 4.71 million."

[edit]- Your edit request could not be reviewed because the provided references are not formatted correctly. The citation style predominantly used by the MobiKwik article is Citation Style 1 (CS1). The citation style used in the edit request consists of bare URL's.[a] Any requested edit of yours which may be implemented will need to resemble the current style already in use in the article – in this case, CS1. (See WP:CITEVAR.) In the extended section below titled Citation style, I have illustrated two examples: one showing how the edit request was submitted, and another showing how requests should be submitted in the future:
Citation style |
|---|
In the example above there are three URL's provided with the claim statements, but these URL's have not been placed using Citation Style 1, which is the style predominantly used by the MobiKwik article. Using that style, the WikiFormatted text should resemble the following:
In the example above the references have been formatted according to Citation Style 1, which shows the author, the source's name, date, etc., all information which is lost when only the links are provided. As Wikipedia is a volunteer project, edit requests such as yours are generally expected to have this formatting done before the request is submitted for review. |
- Kindly resubmit the edit request below at your earliest convenience, taking care to ensure that it makes use of CS1. If you have any questions about this formatting please don't hesitate to ask myself or another editor.

Guideline: It is normal practice to defer to the style used by the first major contributor or adopted by the consensus of editors already working on the page, unless a change in consensus has been achieved. If the article you are editing is already using a particular citation style, you should follow it.
- ↑ The use of bare URLs as references is a style which is acceptable for use in Wikipedia. However, general practice dictates that the style already in use for an article be the one that is subsequently used for all future additions unless changed by editorial consensus.[1]
