Big e-commerce company Flipkart has launched its Unified Payments Interface (UPI) portal. Flipkart, which says it has over 50 crore registered users and 14 lakh sellers on its marketplace, would be able to rely less on outside UPI apps like Paytm, PhonePe, Google Pay, and Amazon Pay thanks to this initiative.
By establishing a UPI ID on the Flipkart app, customers may pay their bills and make payments to both businesses and individuals without utilizing additional applications.

On March 3,  Dheeraj Aneja Flipkart's Director of Fintech and Payments Group stated, that with the launch of Flipkart UPI, they embraced the changing digital world and skillfully combined the affordability and ease of use of UPI with the trusted efficiency that their customers expect from them.
