The fintech platform said it has partnered with Unity Bank to enable TPAP.

Customers can create their UPI ID on the BharatPe app with the extension @bpunity, and make both individual and merchant transactions.

"The foray into the consumer payments category will help us to further propel adoption of digital payments and drive financial inclusion across the country," BharatPe CEO Nalin Negi said.

BharatPe's UPI app is currently available for Android users. The app will also be launched on the App Store (Apple) in the coming months, he said.

"Rebranding our consumer app as BharatPe aligns with our goal of providing a unified brand and platform for both consumers and merchants. While we are not the first player in the country to launch TPAP, we have reimagined the app experience with a renewed emphasis on security, ensuring that trust remains at the core of our offerings," Kohinoor Biswas, Business Head - Consumer at BharatPe, said.
