Definition

A Mandate in UPI is a pre-approved instruction that allows automatic payments at a future date. It’s commonly used for subscriptions, EMIs, and bill payments.

How It Works

You authorize a one-time mandate, and the amount is debited on the selected date without requiring UPI PIN each time.

Use Cases

  • OTT subscriptions
  • Loan EMIs
  • Insurance premium payments

The meaning of UPI mandate is to help users automate recurring payments securely within the UPI system.
