Reliance Jio launches UPI payments on MyJio app

Reliance Jio now allows UPI payments through its MyJio app, Entrackr reported on Monday.

With this, RJio becomes the first telecom operator to facilitate UPI payments through its platform. It has launched the feature on the MyJio app rather than its wallet app, JioMoney.

In order to access the feature, RJio users will need to create a new UPI ID from the app, ending in ‘@Jio’, after completing the sign-up process for UPI transactions, the report said. Users can then enter their bank account number, mobile number and debit card information to generate a UPI pin and begin making payments through UPI.
