BHIM app tops in Google PlayStore
The people
in India are currently facing severe shortage of cash. To help with this
issue, Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India had launched an app, BHIM (Bharat Interface for Money) on Google PlayStore
which will allow the users to make easier, faster and secure online
payment using a Smartphone. The app which was developed by National
Payment Corporation of India has overtaken all the apps in Google
PlayStore including MyJio, Facebook, WhatsApp and currently at the top
in Google PlayStore.
The app which is presently available in
English and Hindi is named after Bhim Rao Ambedkar. Over the next few
days, the support for other languages will be added gradually. The best
part of the app is that your mobile number is considered as the payment
address while a transaction is made through the BHIM app. There is Rs
10000 per transaction and Rs 20,000 per day limits for the BHIM app. It
means that if you have any larger transaction to make, you will still
have to use your netbanking/credit/debit card.
According to Prime Minister, the app
will be improved to make the payment using fingerprint in future. It is
currently available for download only in Android. The iOS version will
be released very soon. You may find the link to download the app from
the PlayStore below.
