Offline UPI Payments in Paytm

Paytm has informed that it is also enabling the BHIM UPI for offline payments. It would help to the small retailers who don’t have a good data connectivity. Many people can’t use UPI because of the poor Internet. Paytm has registered 9.5 million merchants. Out of this 5 million are offline merchants. Thus, the new feature would certainly help them and also boost the UPI payments.
