Paytm had launched an initiative called SEED, under which it has got a little less than 100 mini-warehouses called Seed Centres. LogiNext’s products — Force and Miles — “will help manage these small SEED Centres, and first- and last-mile small courier partners get online and administer their daily activities in a more optimized way,” according to Bhushan Patil, President of Paytm.

He said, “Paytm wants to delve further into the field, maybe do some KYC requirements. So, products like Force, which is a field workforce optimization software, would help us to make sure that the designated work is done and provides us visibility of our partners in every nook and corner of India."
