Stay Safe With UPI QR Codes
- QR codes are for paying, not receiving. You never need to scan a QR code or enter your UPI PIN to receive money. Anyone asking you to do that is likely a scammer.
- Payers should always check the name their app shows before paying.
- For a shop or business, a QR from your bank or payment app gives you payment alerts and settlement reports that this simple code does not.
- Your UPI ID is processed in your browser to draw the code. It is not sent to or stored on our server.
