Paytm has introduced personalized UPI IDs, allowing users to create custom UPI handles for improved privacy and control over financial identities.
Users can now choose UPI handles like name@ptyes or name@ptaxis, distancing UPI IDs from mobile numbers to address data privacy concerns.
To create a personalized UPI ID on Paytm, users need to access the profile icon, go to 'UPI Settings,' select 'Manage UPI ID,' choose a personalized ID, and activate it for payments.
This update follows user feedback to maintain privacy. Paytm has also introduced other features, including transaction hiding, money alerts, and auto top-up functionality, enhancing the overall payment experience.
