This method is efficient, seamless, and reliable as it diverts the load from the real-time banking core system, reducing the burden on the bank server. With this, you can be sure of guaranteed payment success every time. This will be a boon for users, especially during peak transaction hours.

Speaking about the roll-out, Ambarish Kenghe, VP of Product Management from Google, said, “At Google Pay, we feel privileged to partner with the Indian government along with NPCI and RBI, in growing the reach and usefulness of UPI. Unique offerings and use cases are core to driving further adoption of digital payments in the country and with the introduction of UPI LITE on the platform, we aim to simplify small-value transactions by helping users access a convenient, compact, and superfast payments experience.

The UPI Lite account will be linked to your bank account and you will be able to load it with Rs 2,000 twice a day for convenience. However, you will be able to make instant transactions of up to Rs 200 at a time.
