The top UPI apps also saw a slight decline in their volume and value, while a few new players have improved their positions in the competitive landscape. Despite the overall decline, PhonePe maintained its dominance in the UPI market with 7.4 billion transactions amounting to Rs 10,88,635.03 crore. The platform held 47.82% of the transaction volume and 50.52% of the transaction value.

UPI transactions surge 8% in December Unified Payments Interface (UPI) recorded 16.73 billion transactions worth Rs 23.25 lakh crore in December, marking an 8% increase in volume and a 7.88% rise in value compared to November. On a year-on-year basis, this reflects a 39% year-on-year (YoY) growth in volume and a 28% increase in value, according to data released by NPCI (The National Payments Corporation of India). The average daily transaction count for December was 540 million, with a total daily transaction value of Rs 74,990 crore. In November, the daily average transaction count was 516 million, with a daily transaction value of Rs 71,840 crore. This upward trend continued from October 2024, when UPI processed 16.58 billion transactions worth Rs 23.50 lakh crore. PhonePe currently leads the UPI market with nearly 48% share by transaction volume, followed by Google Pay at 37% and Paytm at 7%. The market share is unlikely to change as NPCI has extended the compliance timeline for Third Party App Providers (TPAPs) exceeding the volume cap in UPI. The deadline has been extended by two years, until December 31, 2026. Meanwhile, NPCI has lifted the user onboarding limit for WhatsApp Pay, allowing the platform to extend UPI services to its entire user base across the country. Currently, UPI payments are accepted in seven countries, including Bhutan, Mauritius, Nepal, Singapore, Sri Lanka, and France. According to media reports, NPCI is working to expand its services to Qatar, Thailand, and the broader Southeast Asian region.

Unified Payments Interface (UPI) processed 15.48 billion transactions worth Rs 21.55 lakh crore in November. This reflects a 6.6% decline in transaction count and an 8.3% decline in transaction value compared to October 2024, which recorded 16.58 billion transactions worth Rs 23.50 lakh crore. The digital payment platform recorded a 10% surge in volume in October compared to September’s 15.04 billion transactions. However, UPI saw year-on-year (YoY) growth of 38% in transaction count and 24% in transaction amount last month, while the daily averages stood at 516 million transactions, amounting to Rs 71,840 crore. In October, PhonePe’s market share saw a minor drop to 47.66% from 48% in September. Google Pay and Paytm’s market shares by volume remained unchanged. For the first time, Navi surpassed CRED to become the fourth-largest player in UPI by volume. The market share data for November has yet to be released. UPI has expanded its reach beyond India, now offering services in countries such as Sri Lanka, Mauritius, France, the UAE, Singapore, Bhutan, and Nepal. According to media reports, the National Payments Corporation of India’s international arm (NIPL) has engaged in discussions with at least 20 countries across Africa and South America to assist in developing systems similar to UPI. In recent months, NPCI has introduced significant changes to UPI transaction limits. The upper limit for specific types of UPI payments has been raised to Rs 5 lakh, while the caps for UPI Lite Wallet and UPI 123Pay have also been increased. These changes aim to drive greater adoption of digital payments, aligning with the Indian government’s ambitious vision of achieving 1 billion daily transactions by 2026-27.
