Send Money Using Aadhaar Number

The BHIM Aadhar payment lets you transfer the money directly to the receiver’s account using the recipient’s Aadhar card number. For this the recipient must have the virtual payment address (VPA) for UPI. Instead of adding the recipient’s bank account details, IFSC code etc details this is the simple process to transfer the money using the Aadhar card thru BHIM App.

The primary requirement to transfer the money using Aadhar card number is, the recipant must have the aadhar card number that is linked with the bank account. If this is not the situation, the BHIM aadhar based transfer is not possible.

When using the ‘BHIP App aadhaar based money transfer’ feature the transfer will be strictly done based on the Aadhar card number. It will not show the recipient’s name, bank account details. So be alert and check the aadhar number twice while attempting to transfer.

Here’s how to send money to Aadhaar numbers via BHIM app:

BHIM app users will now be able to send money using their 12-digit Aadhaar number at places where Aadhaar is listed as a payment option.

1. Open the BHIM app on your phone.

    sir,
    i, am a user of your bhim app. the app is good and very useful too. its a very fast app. many people are afraid to use this app frequently because but it has a draw back and it should be corrected. if a moblie with BHIM app is stolen or lost, the person who get the mobile can tranfer funds illegally by login with the OTP. which is very dangerous thing. this can be stopped if the OTP is send only to the other/alternate number of the first owner compulsarily.
    and also a time span should be kept say half an hour or one hour before the fund transfer by the OTP and without confirmation from the first owner the fund should not be transferred.
