Mobile to UPI API
Find the UPI ID and the linked name for a mobile number, with an optional name match.
What it verifies
Finds the UPI ID (virtual payment address) and the name linked to a mobile number. Send a name as well and the response says whether it matches the linked name, with a match score. When a source was unavailable the answer says so, because the list of UPI IDs may then be incomplete.
Who uses it
- Fintech and payments apps that only have a customer's mobile number for a payout
- Lenders and collections teams confirming the name behind a mobile number's UPI ID
- Platforms that match a payee's name against the name linked to their mobile number
