How to make UPI payment in other countries? Other countries are also adopting India’s popular digital payment service, UPI. The information was revealed last day that Sri Lanka has also made an agreement on UPI and soon people here too will be able to make payments through UPI apps. Some time ago PM Modi was on a tour of France where he had announced that soon UPI payment service will start in France as well. Overall, the Government of India wants to spread the payment service of the country all over the world so that people do not face any problem while traveling.
