Unified payment interface
Unified Payments Interface(UPI):
Unified Payments Interface (UPI) is an instant real-time payment system developed
by National Payment corporation Of India for facilitating inter-bank transactions. The
interface is regulated by the Reserve Bank of India and works by instantly transferring
funds between two bank accounts on a Mobile platform.
The pilot launch was on 11th April 2016 by Dr. Raghuram G Rajan, Governor, RBI at
Mumbai. Banks have started to upload their UPI enabled Apps on Google Play store from
25th August, 2016 onwards.
How UPI Works ?
There are several hoops that Payee and Receiver had to jump earlier. With UPI, NPCI streamlined the process and made some
changes to the approach of a transaction. There are two major stages of the transaction now, and Payee and Receiver only need
to focus on just one of them.
PSP (Payment Service Provider)
■ A PSP in the UPI ecosystem is a certified and trusted entity that acts on behalf of a bank. Payee and Receiver may be using
different banks or different e-wallets, but for NPCI a PSP is just an endpoint for a transaction.
■ Since anyone can be a payment service provider, NPCI made a standard API for everyone to use and integrate into their
system accordingly.
■ Now the API is openly accessible many ventures have started using this protocol.These ventures have integrated this
protocol in their respective apps.
VPA(Virtual Payment Address)
Do you remember the time when Payee and Receiver had to enter long details (account number, bank name, and bank IFSC) of
each other to send and receive money?
■ Now when Payee and Receiver register with a PSP, they each get a VPA. This is as easy something of the form
of someuniqueidentity@PSP. It is just like an email address.
■ Payee and Receiver can link their bank accounts with a mobile number and multiple accounts with a single id or multiple ids
for each account is as easy as the snap of fingers.
■ It is natural to think of UPI as the next big game changer.The introduction of UPI has threatened the existence of major
payment wallets like PayPal, and also posed a major challenge to payment gateways like CCAvenue, EBS, Instamojo.
Benefits of UPI
■ Free Fund Transfer
■ Useful For Small Transaction
■ More Secure
■ Instant Transfer
■ One App, Many Accounts
■ No Loss of Interest
■ Rewards and Cashbacks
■ Low Cost

transactions, followed by mobile and internet-based payments.
■ The three-year old real-time payments system UPI clocked 822.29 million transactions worth ₹1.46 lakh
crore in July. There were 754.54 million transactions in June, giving stiff competition to the number of debit
card-based transactions at ATMs, which totaled 786.11 million in June. And for the month of January 2020
the total transaction amount was 2,16,242.97Cr
■ Of the total number of UPI-based transactions in 2018-19, Google Pay scored the maximum transactions at
36%, followed by Flipkart-backed PhonePe at 29%, Paytm at 25%, and other banks and payments
instruments at 10%.
■ Karnataka has been at the forefront of leading UPI’s popularity. In October, the southern state accounted for
27.72% of total transactions in the country, according to Razorpay data.
UPI OnWhatsApp
The Facebook-owned firm had WhatsApp has started rolling out its payment service in
India. WhatsApp uses the Unified Payment Interface (UPI) for its payment service on the
messaging app. This payments method enables one to send and money receive through
their UPI-linked bank accounts. It ensures a fast and swift transfer of money without having
to store balance in a wallet. WhatsApp’s UPI payment service hasn’t officially been rolled
out to users. Only select users have been discovering the feature on their iOS and Android
devices. And the final stable version may finally reach its millions of users in India this year.
UPI live on IPO
Now you can use your UPI ID as a payment option while subscribing for IPO on National
Stock Exchange(NSE) & Bombay Stock Exchange(BSE). Simply by instructing broker to
use UPI ID as the payment option while filling the IPO application.
Bharat Interface for Money(BHIM) is a mobile payment app developed by the NPCI, based on UPI. Named
after B.R. Ambedkar and launched on 30 December 2016, it is intended to facilitate e-payments directly through
banks as part of the 2016 Indian Banknote demonetisation and drive towards cashless transactions. The app
supports all Indian banks which use UPI.
Currently, there is no charge for transactions from ₹1 to ₹100,000. Some banks might, however, levy a nominal
fee for UPI or IMPS transfers.
The minimum transaction amount is ₹1, and the maximum number of transactions per day is 10. If the 10-
transactions-per-day limit has been reached, the user needs to wait for 24 hours from the last transaction before
making another transaction.
Currently, the fund transfer limit has been set to a maximum of ₹20,000 per transaction and a maximum of
₹40,000 in a 24-hour period.
