is UPI used a lot in your region?

MMarvin is UPI used a lot in your region?

melta101•11/20/24, 9:00 AM

it was made in my country

melta101•11/20/24, 9:00 AM

i forgot about cash for so long

melta101•11/20/24, 9:01 AM

now a days
if i have to travel anywhere
its just my phone and earpods
no need of wallet lol

Mmelta101 it was made in my country

MarvinOP•11/20/24, 9:10 AM

Oh wait I see. We are talking about two different UPIs.
On my end it is UnionPay, they also call it UPI on your end it is the Unified Payments Interface. Tell me about it.

MMarvin Oh wait I see. We are talking about two different UPIs. On my end it is UnionPay...

melta101•11/20/24, 9:12 AM

Oh damn

Totally did'nt realize it

so basically UPI is a protocol which helps in real-time bank xfers

melta101•11/20/24, 9:17 AM

This was mainly introduced because lots of corruption was done using cash.
So when the gov suddenly replaced top currency notes. it gave more push to use UPI

melta101•11/20/24, 9:18 AM

so unlike MasterCard and VISA which takes a cut from every payment
from UPI, it doesnt take anything from anyone(buyer,seller, app that integrated UPI)

MarvinOP•11/20/24, 9:22 AM

that is very neat. And the NFC cards can be tokenized in some app? I am assuming the phone has to be NFC enabled.

melta101•11/20/24, 9:25 AM

NFC
which dhruv was talking about is different in this context
that NFC is meant to be only used within Metro stations
Every station entry and exit have card reader that help with this

if you want to update the amount, you would need to give to the counter present there to update it.

melta101•11/20/24, 9:26 AM

UPI uses UPI ID(which are most often QR code) to xfer money

MarvinOP•11/20/24, 9:31 AM

Right.

Mmelta101 UPI uses UPI ID(which are most often QR code) to xfer money

MarvinOP•11/20/24, 9:31 AM

So in order to make a payment, a merchant will scan my UPI QR? Or I scan theirs?

MMarvin So in order to make a payment, a merchant will scan my UPI QR? Or I scan theirs?

melta101•11/20/24, 9:32 AM

we scan thier

melta101•11/20/24, 9:33 AM

they can request money also from us by scanning

melta101•11/20/24, 9:34 AM

now a days
everthing is done with UPI
from elec bill, house rent/maintaince, daily groceries, online commerce etc

MarvinOP•11/20/24, 9:35 AM

do you have to explicitly move money from the bank to it. Or just link the bank to it for automatic movement?

That is really cool. I have seen many countries have partners that offer Indian tourists the ability to pay using UPI.

is this their M-pesa?

Yes but better than. No changes. M-pesa is notoriously exorbitant. And banks also need their cut.

i wish we could take it to other countries seems like you can take UPI to other places.

Ssegfaultdev.elf what’s your opinion on stm32wb series ?

Umesh Lokhande•11/20/24, 5:49 PM

It's a good solution to implement Zigbee but I'm using XBee even before stm32wb launched. I stick with Digi because of the complete suit offered by Digi like XCTU Software and other aspects like the wide user community around Xbee

I see also you used library or wrote your driver from scratch?

Ssegfaultdev.elf I see also you used library or wrote your driver from scratch?

segfaultdev.elf•11/20/24, 5:54 PM

I see

segfaultdev.elf•11/20/24, 5:54 PM

thanks for the informations

Ssegfaultdev.elf I see

Umesh Lokhande•11/20/24, 5:58 PM

It's easier to handle Xbee configuration using XCTU and then use it with high-level programming language. I never had enough time to do everything by my own given tight deadlines to build applications using Zigbee that's why I suggest using Digi's XBee solution

boualleg sabrina•11/20/24, 6:22 PM

hello guys

do you have some new ideas about healthcare and agronomy that I can do using AI or IOT

I agree. @SageBoy you could really do well restructuring the code. And settling on a code style. I'll make it easier to read and go back to maintain/modify

Can you point out all the project structure mistakes. I will make it correct.
