Digital payments are increasing in popularity across India. The Unified Payment Interface (UPI) has revolutionised digital payments in the country. Today, there are numerous digital payment platforms taking advantage of UPI. One of the most popular is Paytm.
Paytm allows users to add their bank account to the app using the UPI system and then make digital payments easily. Users can also add their debit and credit cards to the app for payment processing. The app prompts you to add a bank account when you first make an account but you can also add a bank account at a later date.
