Fintech platform PhonePe has given a new facility to customers. Now UPI service can be activated on this platform from Aadhaar also. Earlier customers had to provide debit card details for UPI setup. Only after these details, users were able to set the UPI PIN. Due to the debit card being compulsory, people who did not have a debit card could not use UPI.

The first app to launch the PhonePe service

It is the first UPI Third Party Application Provider (TPAP) app to start Aadhaar-based UPI onboarding services, the company said in a statement. With this, more and more people will be able to take advantage of digital payment. If you are a new user and want to set up your UPI on PhonePe through an Aadhaar card, then here we are providing the step-by-step process.

The operation of RTGS and NEFT payment systems in India is with the RBI. National Payment Corporation of India (NPCI) operates systems like IMPS, RuPay, and UPI. The government mandated a zero-charge framework for UPI transactions from January 1, 2020.
