UPI stands for Unified Payments Interface (UPI) which is a platform provided by NPCI to facilitate inter-operability amongst various banks. It’s a one stop solution for multiple bank accounts , one app. It allows all account holders to send and receive money using their smartphones with a single identifier – virtual payments address ( VPA) / UPI ID – without entering any bank account information. Therefore, customers do not need to know the payee's or payer’s IFS code, bank account details, etc. and this makes the process simpler.

All transactions on UPI are authenticated by a 2 factor authentication. A Debit transaction can only be initiated through your VPA/ UPI ID on your device and it requires an MPIN to authenticate the transaction.

A virtual payment address (VPA)/UPI ID is which you create and link to any of your bank accounts to make secure payments. The unique ID can be yourname@axisbank or mobilenumber@axisbank etc which is easy to remember. VPA / UPI ID can be used instead of Account & IFSC to transfer funds. Each VPA/ UPI ID is unique to the user.
There is no concept of loading in UPI. It’s direct account to account transfer using VPA/ UPI ID. There are no txn charges on Axis Pay.A Wallet usually charges anything between 1 to 4 % for reversal of money from wallet to account. In UPI, money resides within the account itself, hence there is no scope of reversal as well as loading. Daily txn limit is 1 lakh which is higher than any wallet and it is inter-operable across any UPI app. Awallet is not inter-operable with any other. Sender and receiver party has to have the same wallet to transfer funds. Through UPI, sender and receiving party can choose to have any UPI app available today.
