The National Payment Corporation of India (NPCI) introduced UPI AutoPay on July 22nd, 2020. It enables users to make recurring payments seamlessly through the UPI platform. This feature was specifically designed to enhance buyers’ convenience.
UPI Autopay feature allows auto transactions below 15,000. Users can easily set up automatic monthly payments for various recurring needs such as bill payments, utility recharges, loan repayments, mutual fund investments, content subscriptions, grocery purchases, housing society payments, and membership fees.
Paytm, with its unparalleled platform and dedicated support, emerges as the ideal partner for merchants seeking to leverage the power of UPI Autopay.
UPI Autopay Set Up Process
UPI AutoPay simplifies recurring payments by allowing users to authorize automatic debit mandates through major UPI applications. The process involves a ‘Mandate’ option within UPI apps, where users can create, modify, approve, revoke, or pause the auto-debit mandate. To enable this feature, users need to provide a one-time approval to merchants on the platform who wish to automate payments.
When setting up a subscription, users must also enter additional details such as the subscription start date, merchant name, and debit frequency. This streamlined process ensures seamless recurring payments for users while providing control and flexibility over their automated transactions.
