Today we use Unified Payment Interface (UPI) for everything from grocery to big shopping. We can easily do mobile recharge, electricity bill payment, etc. through UPI. In August 2016, the National Payment Corp of India (NPCI) launched UPI. UPI is a system in which multiple bank accounts can be linked to a mobile app.
Today UPI has brought a revolution in the field of digital payment. People like this payment transfer system a lot because of the feature available for fund transfer along with banking features. UPI works on the Immediate Payment Service (IMPS) platform. This service is available 24X7. This means that users can easily make UPI payments anytime, anywhere.
