The online food and grocery delivery platform, Swiggy has come up with its own UPI (Unified Payments Interface) service. With this step Swiggy would not be dependent on any external apps and this also minimizes payment failures. Furthermore, this will also simplify the checkout experience.
The new service by Swiggy is being introduced through the UPI-Plugin in collaboration with Yes Bank and Juspay.
Over the last month, Swiggy was experimenting with the service for its employees. Gradually it will be rolled out for all its users in phases over the next few months, as per news source.
A fairly new alternative, UPI Plugin was a product launched by National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) back in 2022, that eliminates the need for merchants to get a TPAP license to start UPI payments service within their app.
The risk of payment failures rise when customers have to hop to a different app (like Google Pay or PhonePe) to make the payment, especially when the network connectivity is not good.
Apart from Swiggy, Online pharmacy platform Apollo 247, Zerodha's Coin app, Ola has also launched the UPI Plugin for their customers.
