PayU allows you to collect payments using UPI handles. For the list of UPI providers supported, refer to UPI Handles.
Recommended prerequisite before initiating payment
When your customer makes payment through UPI, you can validate the customer’s Virtual Payment Address (VPA) and then initiate payment. The validateVpa API is used to validate the UPI handle.
Validate the VPA (UPI handle) using the validateVpa API. For more information, refer to Validate VPA Handle API.
