TradeChain review
A focused online workflow for LC requests, bill presentation and related financing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
TradeChain is ICICI Bank’s digital platform for domestic trade transactions under a letter of credit. It is aimed at business customers who need to submit LC requests, present bills, request financing or bill discounting, and track transaction progress online. Its scope suits organizations whose trade activity centers on these LC workflows rather than businesses seeking a broad trade portal. The platform is available on the web, with cloud deployment, and is intended for registered business customers with ICICI Bank Corporate Internet Banking access.
The workflow covers key steps from submission through tracking: customers can send trade documents online, receive transaction alerts, and maintain an audit trail. Access is available around the clock for initiation and tracking, according to the product description. That combination makes TradeChain relevant where teams want digital handling and visibility for LC requests and bill presentation. Its published scope is specific to domestic transactions under letters of credit, so organizations with wider trade processes should compare it with platforms that cover broader needs.
TradeChain is offered through ICICI Bank, and existing current-account customers can be onboarded. Pricing follows a contact-sales model, with access requiring onboarding through the bank. The listed support channel is email. Businesses already banking with ICICI Bank and focused on LC requests, bill presentation, financing requests, and document submission are the clearest fit. Companies without the required Corporate Internet Banking access, or those seeking a broader trade portal, may prefer to consider alternatives with a wider stated scope.
