NPCI to Enable Portability of UPI AutoPay Mandates Across Payment Apps
The National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) plans to introduce interoperability features for UPI AutoPay mandates, allowing users to transfer recurring payment authorizations across different UPI apps without cancellation or re-registration. This update, expected to be announced at the Global Fintech Fest 2026 in Mumbai, will enable consumers to manage subscriptions, loan repayments, and investments more flexibly. Merchants will also benefit by moving mandates between payment gateways without requiring customers to reauthorize payments, enhancing convenience and choice in digital payments.
