Unified Payments Interface (UPI) has transformed digital banking by enabling seamless and instant fund transfers. With just a few taps on your mobile device, you can send and receive money securely without needing to enter lengthy bank details. A key security feature of UPI is the UPI PIN, a 4 or 6-digit code required to authorise every transaction.
There are several instances where you may need to change your UPI PIN, whether you have forgotten your PIN, suspect unauthorised access, or simply want to update it for enhanced security. Knowing how to reset your UPI PIN ensures uninterrupted access to digital transactions and protects your account from fraud.
A UPI PIN (Unified Payments Interface Personal Identification Number) is a security code that authorises UPI transactions. This PIN is linked to your bank account and is required every time you transfer money, pay a merchant or check your account balance through a UPI-enabled app.
A UPI PIN typically consists of 4 or 6 digits, depending on your bank’s guidelines. It ensures that only the authorised account holder can approve transactions, adding an extra layer of security to digital payments.
