What is Paytm Postpaid-Credit line on UPI?
A postpaid UPI credit line is a short-term digital credit facility embedded within the Unified
Payments Interface (UPI) ecosystem. It empowers users to conduct UPI transactions (such as Scan & Pay

their bank accounts. Repayment of the borrowed funds occurs at a later date, typically within a
defined billing cycle. This product is designed to be accessible to both existing bank customers (ETB)
and new-to-bank (NTB) customers.
