Paytm Payments Bank today announced that Paytm users can now transfer money to any mobile number registered with a third-party UPI app via’s Paytm’s UPI-based payments service. Prior to this update, Paytm users could make UPI payments only to other Paytm users. However, with this update, Paytm users will now be able to transfer money via the National Payment Corporation of India’s (NPCI) United Payments Interface (UPI) even to non-Paytm users.
This move will not only give Paytm users more flexibility in terms of making payments, but it will also deepen the interoperability between various payment apps.
“This is an important move for the UPI ecosystem, as it will enable more users to send money to any UPI app, encouraging wider adoption,” Paytm said in a statement on the occasion to media.
“We continue to lead UPI payments, empowering users with a robust infrastructure for seamless and secure payments. This further strengthens our mission to drive financial inclusion in the country,” the company added.
Interestingly, the development comes shortly after Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised Paytm as the financial services and digital payments leader in India during a speech at the Mana village in Uttarakhand last month.
Commending the increase in penetration of digital payments in the country, Modi said that women entrepreneurs of the village were accepting digital payments with Paytm and that they have QR codes outside their shops.
He also said that digital payments pioneer Paytm has been at the forefront of India’s digital revolution and is widely used across the country from small villages to bigger cities and towns. The company pioneered the QR code revolution in India. “From offline payment devices to credit, Paytm is enabling merchants with robust business solutions to scale their businesses,” he had said in his speech at the time.
