The fintech sector has rapidly evolved by leveraging technology to offer cutting-edge solutions thatenable users to manage their finances more effectively and securely.
However, recent data from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) reveals that during the first half of FY24, over 14,000 banking-related scams took place. As these scams become more sophisticated, fintechs are proactively implementing solutions to strengthen the security and trust of their users.
MobiKwik, a fintech company is leveraging the power of UPI by enabling its users to make safe transactions with Pocket UPI – a powerful feature that enhances the functionality of its digital Wallet. Pocket UPI enables users to leverage their MobiKwik Wallet to make payments across all operators’ QRs and UPI IDs seamlessly, without directly linking the bank account.
Pocket UPI enhances security by reducing repetitive exposure to the bank account while making UPI payments. It is a convenient option to make UPI payments for minor and recurring expenses, as it consolidates minor and recurring expenses, decluttering bank statements for improved financial visibility. It works 24/7 even during bank downtimes.
