About UPI vouchers
In an era where UPI has revolutionised the way we transact, UPI vouchers are an innovative way to help someone pay digitally by giving them a prepaid voucher linked to their mobile number. Beneficiaries of these vouchers will be able to use any supporting UPI app, including Google Pay, to pay for all their supported merchant transactions without linking their bank account on UPI.
Initially introduced for COVID-19 vaccination payments, UPI vouchers have now evolved into a versatile payment solution for various sectors. This expansion opens up a world of possibilities where UPI vouchers can be issued by existing UPI users, as well as government and corporate organisations serving varying needs and use cases.
We are proud to collaborate with NPCI and the Department of Financial Services to bring UPI voucher functionality to millions of Indians, from within the Google Pay app.
