The National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has recommended interchange fee on UPI for transactions above Rs.2000 made through digital payment. The fee will be charged from the April 1st on all digital payments like Google Pay, PayTM and other apps.
According to source, UPI payments made through Prepaid Payment Instruments (PPIs) — read digital wallets like PayTM wallet — will now attract 1.1 per cent fee if the value of the transaction is Rs.2000 or more. The wallet transactions that are worth less than Rs.2000 will not attract this charge.
