Dream Money, a financial services platform owned by Dream11 parent Dream Sports, on February 9 announced its integration with Government-backed Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) to enable nationwide distribution of mutual funds.
Through this collaboration, Dream Money will integrate its mutual fund offerings with ONDC Network’s digital ecosystem, enabling its users to directly explore, invest, and manage mutual fund schemes through participating AMCs on the Network, the company said.
The move is expected to provide millions of Indians, especially those between the ages of 18-40, with a wide range of mutual fund investment products while also enabling access to other financial services on the ONDC Network, it added.
Dream Money CEO Vinay Choletti said the integration will enable the company to offer small ticket investments in mutual funds.
“At Dream Money, our vision is to empower every Indian with the knowledge and right tools to grow their net worth," he said "Our integration with the ONDC Network, combined with our unique financial goals-based investing approach, will make mutual fund investing simple and accessible at scale."
Hrushikesh Mehta, SVP—Financial Services at ONDC, said, “ By providing distribution via low-cost shared infrastructure, ONDC Network enables investment products like mutual funds to be accessed by consumer touchpoints in sachet sizes. We believe this approach has the potential to broaden and deepen investor participation in the country.”
Moneycontrol was the first to report about Dream Sports launching Dream Money, which allows people to invest in gold and fixed deposits, in May 2025.
The move is expected to help the company diversify its offerings after the recent online gaming law disrupted its core business model, wiping out 95 percent of its revenue and all of its profits.
Dream Money stated it has over a million users and the company aims to offer a suite of financial services and products, including insurance, investments, lending, and other digital distribution services.
Dream Sports has split into eight ‘startups’, each with its own leaders, in the months following the country’s real-money gaming ban in August, Moneycontrol earlier reported.
The eight ‘startups’ span sports entertainment platform Dream11, sports content platform FanCode, sports experiences platform DreamSetGo, cricket game Dream Cricket, and artificial intelligence (AI) initiative Dream Sports AI that includes sports performance analytics app Dream Play and AI-powered cricket prediction app RushLine.
Other startups include open-source unit Dream Horizon, and the philanthropic arm Dream Sports Foundation, besides Dream Money.
