If you are someone who is used to the comfort of the Unified Payments Interface or UPI, travelling abroad may bring with it the discomfort of tedious payment processes. But worry not! This discomfort is about to end soon! You can now use Paytm for doing transactions abroad in these specific countries! Here are all of the other important details that you would need to know about this particular new update.

Indian Travellers Can Now Use Paytm Abroad In These Countries

According to an article which was recently published by CNBC TV18, Paytm can now be used for transactions by Indian travellers in other countries as well. These countries are available wherever UPI payments are accepted.

For instance, popular spots in countries like Bhutan, France, Mauritius, the United Arab Emirates or the UAE, Singapore, and Nepal accept UPI. Here, Indian travellers will be able to use Paytm. In order to make this feature more accessible, the app will have certain other helpful features.

In order to use this feature, users will be required to do a one-time activation linked to their bank account. They will be required to stipulate a certain usage period ranging from one day to 90 days. In addition to this, users will also be privy to real-time exchange rates on the app.
