The UPI Mapper pilot will be launched from October- how does this change UPI payments, and more.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"PART_I_Revised_RBI_norms_for_prepaid_payment_instruments\"><\/span><strong>PART I: Revised RBI norms for prepaid payment instruments<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This May, the RBI introduced several important and welcome changes for PPIs. This included mandatory interoperability, allowing m-wallets to gain UPI handles and prepaid cards to become card network affiliated, in turn allowing wallet payments via UPI\/ card infrastructure. Balance limits were also enhanced to Rs.2 Lakhs and cash withdrawal was permitted for non-bank PPIs. These changes brought PPIs more on par as an effective substitute for a bank account. Providing a simpler way to access banking services and reducing the gap between bank and non-bank issuers, these steps increased the demand for the PPI license, making PPIs a good basis for banking the unbanked and providing banking-as-a- service.&nbsp;This is discussed in detail in a previous edition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The RBI has now issued a fresh 2021 Master Direction for PPIs (\u2018MD-PPIs\u2019). The new direction essentially consolidates the old 2017 Master Direction with other guidelines including the 2018 PPI Interoperability guidelines, the recent May amendments and requirements under July\u2019s notification on the CPS (NEFT\/RTGS) membership for non-bank PPI issuers into one. Broadly, the norms remain the same, with key changes being a simpler re-categorisation of the PPIs as small PPIs and full KYC PPIs, and making the authorisation validity for a PPI issuer perpetual. An AFA requirement has also been introduced for all debits to wallets including cash withdrawals. Details of the changes are outlined below.:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Summarising key changes in the new MD-PPI 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Key Changes<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Details<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>PPI Categories<\/strong><\/td><td>Former \u2018semi-closed\u2019 and \u2018open\u2019 system categories removed, new categories:<br>* Small PPIs with cash loading facilities (formerly min. details PPIs upto Rs.10k)<br>* Small PPIs without cash loading facilities (formerly min. detail PPIs upto Rs.10k with loading only from bank account)<br>* Full KYC PPIs (formerly semi-closed\/open system PPIs, upto Rs.2L)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Authorisation period<\/strong><\/td><td>Formerly 5 years, now perpetual.

Banks permitted to carry out these are called &#8216;bankers-to-an-issue&#8217; (&#8216;BTI&#8217;), and earlier this was restricted to &#8216;scheduled banks&#8217;, or banks like commercial banks which are listed under the RBI Act&#8217;s Second Schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now the applicable regulations, the SEBI (Bankers to an Issue) Regulations, 1994 were amended this July, allowing SEBI to permit any banking company to act as a BTI. In August, unscheduled payments banks (\u2018PBs\u2019) were permitted for this.&nbsp;In addition, they were permitted to act as \u2018Self-Certified Syndicate Banks\u2019 (\u2018SCSBs\u2019), or banks recognized as capable of providing Application Supported by Blocked Amount (ASBA) services to its customers. This is a welcome move for investors, increasing the payment avenues available to them, and also for PBs, allowing them to add investment services to their offerings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" data-attachment-id=\"4099\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/payments-digest-by-cashfree-july-2021-e-rupi-upis-changing-face\/outline_payments_black_48dp\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_payments_black_48dp.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"96,96\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"outline_payments_black_48dp\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_payments_black_48dp.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-4099\" style=\"width: 60px;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cashfree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_payments_black_48dp.png?resize=60%2C60&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"><br><strong>For payments banks<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" data-attachment-id=\"4103\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/payments-digest-by-cashfree-july-2021-e-rupi-upis-changing-face\/outline_groups_black_48dp-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_groups_black_48dp-1.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"96,96\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"outline_groups_black_48dp-1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_groups_black_48dp-1.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-4103\" style=\"width: 60px;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cashfree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_groups_black_48dp-1.png?resize=60%2C60&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"><br><strong>For customers<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" data-attachment-id=\"4102\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/payments-digest-by-cashfree-july-2021-e-rupi-upis-changing-face\/outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"96,96\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-4102\" style=\"width: 60px;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cashfree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp.png?resize=60%2C60&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"><br><strong>For the payments industry&nbsp;<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">PBs have diversified to offer a range of services like issuing PPIs, UPI payments, bill payments, recurring payments, etc. This adds investment services to the list. Compliance with other applicable BTI\/SCSB regulations will be required.<br><br>This also adds to the many RBI steps supporting PBs, like increasing account balance limits to Rs.2 Lakhs, recent support to bank issued PPIs, allowing PBs to convert to small finance banks allowing lending to be added to service offerings, etc. <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">For customers banking with PBs, they can also invest and participate in issues from their PB savings accounts (not their PPIs or current accounts). The recently enhanced limits of Rs.2 Lakhs is a welcome point here. <br><br>This is a welcome addition to payment avenues available to investors. For example, options include UPI used as a payments option for IPO subscriptions on the NSE\/BSE, NACH\/AutoPay for mutual fund SIPs, use of e-wallet PPIs for mutual fund investments (permitted by SEBI in 2017), etc. PB accounts now get added to the list.&nbsp;<br><br><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Even with banking-as-a-service, embedded finance, etc. disrupting traditional banking services, regulators have been taking several steps supporting innovation &amp; also allowing non-traditional players to enter the field.&nbsp;<br><br>NUEs of course are an example.

The use of something as simple as the mobile number as a payments address, without the need for an actual bank account number or an IFSC code, introduced a level of ease with real-time payments. This also allowed features like &#8216;pay to contact&#8217;, where users could detect and select payees from their contact list. The suffix of the VPA, i.e., the &#8216;@PSP&#8217; part, is important to enable transactions to be routed to the correct PSP. An issue that sometimes arose here was with UPI apps being unable to automatically detect and make payments to UPI IDs of a different PSP\/TPAP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aiming to resolve this interoperability issue, and also to encourage UPI adoption on feature phones, a simpler payments address was required. To resolve these issues, the NPCI recently introduced a \u2018Numeric UPI ID mapper\u2019, the pilot for which will be launched from October 1st this year. The mapper will host a \u2018UPI Number\u2019 which will be a numeric ID. This can be the customer&#8217;s mobile number, and will be mapped to the original alphanumeric UPI ID customers already have. This mapper will now handle transaction routing, thus freeing from dependency on the suffix and introducing interoperability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" data-attachment-id=\"4353\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/payments-digest-by-cashfree-august-2021-rbis-revised-m-wallet-norms\/outline_credit_score_black_48dp\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/outline_credit_score_black_48dp.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"96,96\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"outline_credit_score_black_48dp\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/outline_credit_score_black_48dp.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-4353\" style=\"width: 60px;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cashfree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/outline_credit_score_black_48dp.png?resize=60%2C60&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"><br><strong>For UPI PSPs\/TPAPs<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" data-attachment-id=\"4103\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/payments-digest-by-cashfree-july-2021-e-rupi-upis-changing-face\/outline_groups_black_48dp-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_groups_black_48dp-1.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"96,96\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"outline_groups_black_48dp-1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_groups_black_48dp-1.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-4103\" style=\"width: 60px;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cashfree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_groups_black_48dp-1.png?resize=60%2C60&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"><br><strong>For customers<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" data-attachment-id=\"4102\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/payments-digest-by-cashfree-july-2021-e-rupi-upis-changing-face\/outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"96,96\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogrevamp.cashfree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp.png?fit=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-4102\" style=\"width: 60px;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cashfree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/outline_app_settings_alt_black_48dp.png?resize=60%2C60&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"><br><strong>For the payments industry <\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><br>The pilot period will be from October 1st to December 1st, 2021, and during this period PSPs\/TPAPs can onboard a maximum of 5 million users per app.<br><br>For customers, setting the UPI numbers will be voluntary, and seeding with the mapper will be consent based.

Mobile number based payments moreover will not be possible for customers declining consent to seed from 2022, though other UPI ID payments will still be possible.<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">This is another in a line of steps by the regulator to introduce interoperability in payments, previous steps being mandatory interoperability for QR codes and PPIs.&nbsp;Interoperable UPI payments now further add to user convenience.<br><br>Feature phone payments has also been a major focus of the regulator, with NPCI hackathons and the RBI regulatory sandbox focussing on innovation here.  The first cohort in fact featured UPI based feature phone payment solutions, so these will need to incorporate these requirements. <br><br>Overall, there is a welcome focus to enable feature phone based payments, serving to increase digital payments penetration.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Others_Device_based_tokenisation_PSO_outsourcing_norms_PIDF_beneficiaries_and_the_financial_inclusion_Index\"><\/span><strong>Others<\/strong>: Device based tokenisation, PSO outsourcing norms, PIDF beneficiaries and the financial inclusion Index<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>RBI extends device-based tokenisation norms:<\/strong> Increasing the devices on which card-saving solutions can be provided,  the RBI extended the scope of&nbsp;permitted devices for \u2018device-based tokenisation\u2019.
