Digital payment via UPI spikes on person-to-merchant transaction growth: Report

In August, digital payments through the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) exceeded 10 billion transactions, primarily driven by Person-to-Merchant (P2M) transactions, according to a report by Worldline. UPI transactions have seen substantial growth from 151 million in January 2018 to 9.3 billion in June 2023. P2M transactions, accounting for 57.5% of all UPI transactions in June 2023, indicate the future growth of UPI. The report also noted a reduction in the average ticket size (ATS) for UPI P2M transactions, indicating increased use for microtransactions. Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) has seen significant adoption, with 56.5% growth in issued tags and increased transaction volumes and values.
