UPI Charges refer to the fees that may be applied to certain UPI transactions, especially commercial or subscription-based ones. The full form of UPI is Unified Payments Interface, and it was initially designed to offer free, real-time digital payments.

When They Apply

While personal transactions (P2P) remain free for most users, banks or payment apps may charge for peer-to-merchant (P2M) transfers, UPI AutoPay subscriptions, or UPI Credit services. Charges vary by bank, transaction type, and value.
