This remarkable achievement highlights India’s commitment to leveraging technology for inclusive growth and economic progress.
“UPI has transformed digital payments in India with its unparalleled ease, security, and versatility. By enabling round-the-clock transactions and offering features like single-click payments and virtual addresses, it ensures both convenience and privacy for users. Its ability to integrate multiple banking services into one app makes it a game-changer in financial technology,” said the Finance Ministry.
