Paytm has come a long way from just being an app for making payments to now also being a leader in banking services for its customers (including banks). The company also plans to become an advertising platform by offering users branded ads targeted at specific demographics such as women or youth (who pay more than men).

UPI is a Smartphone Payment Service. Paytm is a mobile app that allows you to do everything from purchasing goods and services to paying bills, transferring money, and more.
UPI is a one-stop-shop for all your payments. It lets you send money, receive money, and make online payments easily.
Paytm also has an app called ‘Paytm Wallet’ which functions like a bank account on your phone with the ability to pay bills or buy things using your UPI credentials. You can also transfer money into and out of your wallet while on the go.
And because it’s all done on the go, Paytm says cards are not necessary to use UPI apps like its own Paytm Wallet app but only need to download the UPI app from the Play Store or App Store.
The Android version of Paytm Wallet can be downloaded directly in the Play Store or via Google Play by searching for “paytum wallet”. Alternatively, users who have an iTunes account can download the iOS version of Paytm Wallet by searching for ‘paytum wallet’.

This means that if you have a debit card issued by a bank in India and want to purchase something with it using Paytm — it will work just as well as any other UPI transaction that may happen with any Indian bank accounts (like ICICI Bank for example).
Alternatively, using our app will make it easier for users who don’t have access to either the play store or google play store to transfer money from their bank accounts into their personal Paytm wallets without having to worry about paper documents at the airport or offices when traveling abroad- because now they can just use their phone bill pay feature which they already have.
