UPI came and UPI ruled! Within 4 years of its launch, UPI trumped past ATM withdrawals and credit card transactions. It has continued to widen the gap through the years.

Auto-debits for recurring payments like subscriptions and bills. Smarter fraud detection powered by AI for secure transactions. Digital rupee integration for seamless digital currency transactions. More merchant payments with UPI leading the P2M space. New features like UPI Lite for quicker, smaller payments. Growing merchant tools that make UPI adoption even easier. UPI is set to do wonders - get ready for more magic in the coming years!

1dGreat insights, especially as Visa faces lawsuits in the US for monopolizing the debit market. Visa, a dominant force in the payment network space, has stifled innovation to safeguard its business and revenue. By forming agreements with companies like Apple, PayPal, and Square, Visa has turned potential competitors into partners, suppressing competition and hindering innovation—all at the expense of American consumers and merchants of every size. Credit must be given to the Indian government, the RBI, and the startup ecosystem, especially Paytm, to drive innovation in this space and make payments cost-effective and efficient.
