With the situation of Kovid-19 becoming critical, people are once again marching toward their homes. Many people must also be thinking of getting train tickets. But they either have to go to the agent for this or have to stand in a long line at the ticket counter. But do you know that the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) e-Wallet is a process through which passengers can deposit money already with IRCTC? While booking tickets through an e-wallet, you just have to make two or three clicks for payment and your payment will be done instantly.

What is IRCTC e-Wallet?
An E-Wallet is basically a type of electronic card which is used with the help of a computer or smartphone. It is used for online transactions. It works like a credit or debit card but the e-wallet needs to be linked to the customer's bank account for making payments. IRCTC e-Wallet aims to provide the facility of online ticket booking without any hassle. Making payment through this mode becomes easy.

This reduced the dependency on a particular bank, as tickets can be easily booked from the IRCTC e-wallet account. It also saves ticket fees from payment gateways.
