Paytm, owned by One97 Communications Limited, is now enabling Indian users to make digital payments abroad.
With the Paytm UPI app, users can pay in several countries, including the UAE, Sri Lanka, Singapore, France, Mauritius, Bhutan, and Nepal.
How to Set Up Paytm UPI for International Use
To use Paytm UPI in other countries, users need to activate the “UPI International” feature in the app and link it to their bank account.
Once set up, users can make payments for shopping, dining, and other activities by simply scanning UPI-enabled QR codes in these countries.
The app guides users through the activation process, making it quick and hassle-free.
Flexible Payment Settings for Travelers
Travelers can customize their UPI payment settings for trips lasting from 1 to 90 days. The feature can also be deactivated anytime.
Before making a payment, users can check the foreign exchange rates and conversion fees for complete transparency.

With Paytm UPI, shopping and making payments while traveling has become easier and more secure.
From Dubai’s restaurants to Singapore’s markets and Mauritius’ beaches, Indian travelers can now enjoy cashless transactions in multiple countries.

Plans are underway to launch UPI in Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Australia, the USA, Bahrain, Japan, the Philippines, and more.
