Unified Payments Interface (UPI) is a seamless digital payment system from NPCI (National Payments Corporation of India) that enables instant fund transfers between bank accounts using a mobile device. It eliminates the need for traditional banking details, offering a fast and secure transaction experience. To ensure security, every UPI transaction requires a UPI PIN, a unique code that authorises payments. If you forget your UPI PIN or need to reset it for security reasons, banks offer multiple methods, including debit card or Aadhaar OTP-based authentication. Read on to learn how to reset your UPI PIN without a Debit Card

 

How to reset UPI PIN without a debit card?


A few banks now allow users to change their UPI PIN through Aadhaar authentication. Rather than using their debit card, customers may enter the first six digits of their Aadhaar number and authenticate through OTP. This is hassle-free and more convenient for users who do not always have their debit card handy.

Here are the steps to follow for your question, ‘How to set a UPI PIN without a debit card?’


1. Open any UPI app (PhonePe, Gpay, etc.) that you use.

2. Navigate to the section where your linked bank accounts with UPI are displayed.

3. Choose the option to set or reset your UPI PIN for the desired bank account.

4. Click on Aadhaar based verification.

5. Enter the first six digits of the Aadhaar number in the given field.

6. Enter the OTP received on the registered mobile number linked with your Aadhaar and bank account.

7. After successful verification, create a new PIN and confirm it.

Always ensure that your mobile number is linked to both your Aadhaar and bank account to facilitate seamless authentication.

Modern banking is all about convenience—resetting your UPI PIN without a debit card ensures uninterrupted access to secure digital payments.
