UPI Lite is a feature enabled by NPCI, also known as "on-device wallet". This feature allows users to initiate quick small balance payments without entering the UPI PIN.

The RBI (Reserve Bank of India) introduced a new payment system called UPI Lite in September 2022. It is a simplified version of the original UPI payment system, allowing users to initiate small value transactions daily without dealing with payment failure issues in case of bank processing issues.

UPI Lite is a simplified version of UPI that is designed for low-value transactions. Unlike regular UPI transactions, which have a daily limit of Rs 1 lakh, UPI Lite transactions are capped at Rs 200 per transaction. Users must first add money to their UPI Lite account through their linked bank account to use UPI Lite. Once the account is set up, users can add up to Rs 2,000 to their UPI Lite account twice daily, for a total limit of Rs 4,000.
