“The Indian digital payments company Paytm announced about integrating Rupay cards to its QR code for merchants for accepting payments. The recent Paytm QR code is already operable to receive payments via UPI apps such as PhonePe, GooglePay, BHIM, etc apart from Paytm wallet and cards. During the launch of the all-in-one Paytm QR code, the Paytm CEO Vijay Shekhar Sharma said that it is not just the wallet or UPI but also from other payment modes that the merchants will be able to accept payments. This QR code is different as it is the only QR code that has the availability of QR codes. Sharma also said that this facility can be availed absolutely free of cost,i.e. no MDR charge.”
