In a significant step towards digital convenience and cashless commuting, Delhi Metro on Thursday launched ‘DMRC Pay powered by BHIM’, a native UPI payment experience within the Delhi Metro Sarthi app, in partnership with NPCI BHIM Services Limited (NBSL). This feature allows commuters to make swift and secure ticket purchases with a single click, eliminating the need for external payment gateways. DMRC’s integration with BHIM Vega allows commuters to register UPI IDs, link bank accounts or RuPay cards, and make seamless payments within the DMRC app. This makes DMRC the first public sector entity to implement next-gen UPI solutions, enhancing convenience for millions of commuters. On the integration, Vikas Kumar, Managing Director, DMRC, stated, “Delhi Metro has consistently been at the forefront of digital innovation. With the launch of ‘DMRC Pay powered by BHIM’, we are further simplifying daily ticketing for our passengers. One-click, in-app UPI payments will not only save time but also streamline the entire experience. This also reflects our focus on offering a unified digital mobility solution.” The integration of UPI payments into the app is expected to reduce physical queues and further promote digital adoption among passengers.
