How to Prevent Unwanted Charges with UPI AutoPay
UPI AutoPay lets apps and services automatically take money from your bank account each month.
This is great for things like Netflix, but if you stop using a service, you might still get charged.
To stop these charges, go into your UPI app (like PhonePe or Google Pay) and cancel the ones you don't want.
Check these settings every few months to make sure you're not paying for something you don't use anymore.
UPI AutoPay facilitates recurring payments for subscriptions and services.
Unwanted AutoPay deductions can occur for unused subscriptions.
Users can manage AutoPay via UPI apps like BHIM, PhonePe, and Google Pay.
Users can cancel, pause, or revoke AutoPay mandates in their UPI app settings.
Regularly review and monitor active AutoPay mandates to avoid unwanted charges.
