On Tuesday, the Minister of Finance of India, Nirmala Sitharaman, made a statement saying that India is speaking with many nations to encourage acceptance of the RuPay, the Indian multinational financial services and payment service system which was brought out by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), in their region.
Nirmala Sitharaman further added that the National Payments Corporation of India (NCPI), the Bharat Interface for Money (BHIM) app, and the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) are all together at present being developed in a manner that their systems in each nation, no matter how reliable or not, will be able to communicate with the payment service system. This inter-activity and coordination alone will strengthen the proficiency of Indians in these nations.
In answer to a query asked by an Indian student from the University of Maryland (UMD) who is hoping for the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) to be made available in the United States of America as well, the Union Finance Minister stated that India is jointly working with some nations worldwide.

The Indian student who studies at the University of Maryland (UMD) put forward the inquiry this way while taking pride in the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) system available in India. The student wanted to know Nirmala Sitharaman’s opinion regarding the UPI system’s intentions or plan of action for the time to come and how they will be able to expand it across the globe. It is what the Indian student yearns for the most from India since the UPI system is currently unavailable in the United States.
The Minister of Finance added that they are speaking with many various nations. The Republic of Singapore and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have taken a step forward to accept RuPay in their nations.
The products offered by RuPay include Debit cards, Credit cards, Combo cards, Prepaid cards, RuPay Global, RuPay for Business, RuPay E-com, Commercial credit cards, RuPay Pro, and nth Rewards. The countries that have already accepted RuPay are the Republic of Singapore, Bhutan, the Republic of Maldives, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the Kingdom of Bahrain, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), Myanmar (Burma), South Korea, Nepal, France, United Kingdom (UK), the Russian Federation, the Sultanate of Oman, and a few European nations.
