UPI Bank Mapping

byPaytm Editorial TeamLast Updated: July 16, 2025

Definition

UPI Bank Mapping is the process that connects your UPI ID or mobile number to a specific bank account in NPCI’s centralized database. This mapping allows the UPI system to identify which bank account to debit or credit when a transaction is initiated.

Purpose

This is especially useful when you have multiple bank accounts or use different UPI apps. It ensures that the correct account is selected as default and that your transactions are routed correctly. Without accurate mapping, UPI transfers may fail or be misdirected.
