What is UPI
A facility like UPI for digital payments allows you to easily transfer money from home. For this, you need UPI-supporting apps like Paytm, PhonePe, Bhim, GooglePay, etc. The special thing is that UPI allows you to transfer money even if you have only one piece of information from the scanner, mobile number, or UPI ID. You can also make UPI payments from phones/feature phones with the UPI 123Pay button.
