PayPal and NPCI International Payments Limited (NIPL) have partnered to integrate the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) on PayPal World. The announcement was made at the Global Fintech Fest in Mumbai.
This collaboration makes UPI one of the first launch partners on PayPal World, a platform connecting major payment systems and digital wallets globally. Indian users can now pay using UPI on millions of businesses accepting PayPal.
International travellers in India can also make seamless payments through their PayPal wallets via the UPI system. PayPal World uses cloud-native architecture and open APIs to ensure fast, secure, and reliable transactions.
Alex Chriss, CEO of PayPal, called the partnership a “landmark moment,” while NPCI International CEO Ritesh Shukla said it will expand UPI’s global reach, benefiting Indian users and international businesses.
