RuPay Gains Market Share from Global Rivals on UPI Integration

Imagine you have different ways to pay for things with a card, like using Visa or Mastercard.

In India, there's a local card system called RuPay.

Recently, RuPay got a big boost because it can be used with a popular payment app called UPI.

This is like giving RuPay a superpower because UPI is accepted almost everywhere, even more than regular credit card machines.

Because of this, RuPay is being used for more and more credit card payments, even though Visa and Mastercard have been around longer.

Some people are using RuPay cards more for smaller payments, and the total amount spent on them is still growing.

But for many people, especially those new to credit cards, RuPay offers an easy way to pay using UPI.
