New Delhi, March 3 (IANS): eBay India has partnered with SMEcorner.com, the online platform for small and medium enterprises (SME), a company statement said here on Tuesday.

SMEcorner.com offers loan accessibility options in six online steps which help combat challenges of endless follow-ups, arduous documentation, unprofessional intermediaries and more, it said.

“The tie up has given us the opportunity to expand our bandwidth and has given us the confidence to penetrate the growing e-commerce sector even deeper. Our aim is to narrow the gap between SME enterprises and lenders by guiding and providing them access to avenues to meet their funding requirements,” Samir Bhatia, founder & chief executive officer, SMEcorner.com said.

“e-commerce is becoming mainstream and is attracting entrepreneurs’ to set-up their business online. Many SME e-commerce merchants are also looking to scale their existing online businesses but are unable to do so, due to lack of financing options. The tie-up with SMECorner.com will help fulfill the funding needs of over 50,000 sellers on ebay.in,” Pankaj Ukey, head seller services, eBay India said.
