PhonePe New App: Now the times are changing and the era of digital payment is reaching every village. PhonePe is going to take a big step on this path. Yes, till now only smartphone users were able to take advantage of UPI payment, but now there is good news for those who use feature phones. PhonePe will soon launch a new app, which will allow UPI payment even without internet. That is, now even those with ordinary phones will be able to join the world of digital payment.
All work will be done through SMS
Actually, PhonePe has recently bought GSPay, a special technology of Gupshup. With the help of this technology, money can be sent without internet only through SMS. This service is based on NPCI’s UPI 123PAY system, which is specially made for feature phone users. It will not only have the facility to send and receive money, but payment can also be made by scanning the QR code. Meaning, now whether it is a small shopkeeper in the village or a laborer, everyone will be able to make digital payments from their phone – and that too without the hassle of a smartphone or internet.
Will be a best option in the villages
PhonePe CEO Sameer Nigam says that even today there are crores of people in India who cannot afford a smartphone, and who do not have internet facility. This is the reason why the company wants to connect them to the digital world by launching this new app. This facility will be very beneficial especially in rural areas, where network problems are common. The most special thing about this technology is that it works through SMS, that is, transactions will be possible even in very low networks.
Relief news for small traders
This step will bring relief to small shopkeepers, businessmen of rural areas and those common people, who were till now dependent only on cash transactions. Now they will also be able to take payment by scanning QR code and will be able to give digital payment option to their customers. This will not only increase business, but people’s trust in digital payment will also increase. Through this system, transactions will not only be fast but also completely secure.
The digital gap will end
With this new facility, those people will also become a part of Digital India, who till now were just spectators. When a village farmer, shopkeeper, or even a laborer will be able to easily send or receive money from his feature phone, then the real digital revolution will happen. This step of PhonePe will play a big role in ending the digital gap and will make people financially strong.
The app will be launched soon
This app of PhonePe is going to be launched in the coming few months. As soon as this service starts, those people from villages to cities who do not have smartphones will get digital power. This technology will not only bring convenience, but will also give a new digital direction to the country. This will reduce dependence on cash and people will move towards cashless transactions.
So get ready, now every pocket will have digital power, and every hand will have the new magic of UPI payment – that too without internet and smartphone. PhonePe is bringing something that will change the face of villages and increase the pace of the country.
