Need for UPI ID verification?

Need for UPI ID verification

The vision of making India a cashless economy rides on the back of the instant real-time payment system called Unified Payment Interface (UPI), developed by the National Payment Corporation Of India (NPCI). This seamless cash flow journey is facilitated by a unique UPI ID/address [eg. abc@xyzbank], which is created and mapped against your existing bank account, which in turn allows you to send and receive money electronically.

Touted as the most secure platform for cashless transactions, by NPCI, and with the volume of UPI transactions crossing the 7 Billion mark in September 2022, the need for UPI validation and verification is at an all-time high.

Use Cases

The security of your digital transactions via UPI address paves way for the following two use cases

Verification of Ownership

The background verification at the time of onboarding a new vendor/merchant/customer/user.


Validation of Existence

The need to validate the transactions before:

Accepting funds from the users. This strengths risk monitoring and ensure funds are flowing from the user’s registered bank account only

Withdrawal/payout is made to the UPI ID of the user
