The launch of the UPI-PayNow linkage (between India and Singapore) is a gift to the citizens of the two countries, which they were waiting for eagerly. I congratulate the people of both India and Singapore for this, PM Narendra Modi said.
Unified Payments Interface, developed by National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), is a quick payment method that enables the instantaneous transfer of funds through a mobile phone. Similar to India’s fast payment system - UPI - PayNow is Singapore’s counterpart.
Once implemented, fund transfers can be made from India to Singapore using mobile phone numbers, and vice versa using UPI virtual payment addresses.
