- No card details stored anywhere.
- Works from any bank account linked to UPI.

Staying safe with UPI payments
- You only ever enter your UPI PIN inside your own UPI app.
- Nobody legitimate needs your Instagram password or an OTP.
- Top up in small amounts, especially the first time.
- Keep the UTR/transaction ID from your UPI app in case you need support.
Payment went through but balance not added?
- Wait two minutes and refresh the wallet page.
- Check your UPI app shows the payment as successful, not pending.
- If money was debited but not credited, contact support with the UTR number. Pending UPI payments usually reverse to your bank automatically if they fail.
