Zaggle Prepaid Ocean Services, a fintech SaaS company, offers a diversified range of products including prepaid cards, expense management, and reward platforms. The company has been actively expanding its corporate client base through various partnerships.

Risks to watch
Zaggle Prepaid Ocean Services faces a penalty of ₹2.59 crore under the IGST Act, 2017, for the financial year 2017-18, although the company plans to appeal. Additionally, some market analyses suggest that Zaggle's reported profits might be underpinned by weaker free cash flow and potential earnings dilution, warranting careful investor scrutiny.
Peer comparison
Zaggle competes with companies like Happay, Expensify, and Zeta in the business spend management and employee rewards space. Happay offers an all-in-one business expense management solution, while Expensify is a payments superapp focusing on expense management. Zeta provides employee benefits and corporate card solutions. Expensify's revenue generation is comparable, though slightly less than Zaggle's.
