Big changes hit UPI on October 15, 2026, but don’t panic! Peer-to-peer transfers remain 100% free. Charges only apply to specific high-value merchant transactions and investments—and these costs fall on businesses, not you. Apps are strictly banned from adding hidden platform fees. Your daily grocery runs and bill splits stay exactly as they are. Stay digital, stay informed, and keep transacting!
