PhonePe transaction limit per day limit

Since PhonePe works on the UPI (Unified Payments Interface) platform, users can make payments directly from their bank accounts on a real-time settlement basis. However, just like other bank transfer modes such as NEFT and IMPS, there are certain limits on the number and amount of transactions that can be done through PhonePe in a day.

The transaction limits on PhonePe UPI are as follows:

  • Daily limit of Rs 1,00,000 – A user can transfer a total amount of upto Rs Rs 1,00,000 per day. This limit also varies from bank to bank.
  • A maximum of 10 or 20 transactions per day – PhonePe users can only transact upto 10 or 20 times on a daily basis, depending on the bank.
  • Request upto a maximum of Rs 2,000 – A PhonePe user can request a maximum amount of just Rs 2,000 from someone in a day.

PhonePe transaction limit for businesses

Transaction limit for PhonePe business users

Many business owners utilise PhonePe’s merchant solutions for day-to-day activities such as sending payments to other parties or accepting payments from their end customers in exchange for goods and services. Keeping this into consideration, PhonePe doesn’t have a limit on the number of transactions a business can make through the app. This way, no matter how many transactions have been dealt with during a day or a week, there’s always a seamless flow of funds inwards and outwards.

PhonePe wallet transfer limits

Apart from allowing users to pay and receive money through UPI on its app, PhonePe also has an inbuilt wallet that can be used to make payments for goods and services both online and offline. Once an amount is added to the wallet, it cannot be taken back or transferred to any bank account. The company allows users to add a maximum of Rs 10,000 monthly to their wallet, which accounts for a total of Rs 1,20,000 maximum limit annually. However, in case of refunds or cancellations, any balance of more than Rs 10,000 can be added back to your wallet. Such limits for adding balance to a PhonePe wallet have been imposed to avoid any risk of fraudulent transactions.

FAQs

Why does PhonePe have a transaction limit?

PhonePe restricts a user to exceed a particular amount or number of transactions to prevent the misuse of funds in a bank account in case the user’s mobile phone gets stolen or the PhonePe account gets hacked. With transaction limits in place, fraudsters won’t be able to withdraw the whole amount.

How to increase PhonePe transaction limit?

Currently, there’s no provision to increase the transaction limits on PhonePe UPI or wallet-based payments. PhonePe works on the UPI framework, which has its guidelines laid down by NCPI and RBI.

Are there any charges on PhonePe transactions?

No, all the UPI-based transactions done through the PhonePe app are free of charge. As a matter of fact, irrespective of the app or platform, any organisation or company offering the UPI functionality cannot charge the account holder for making and receiving payments. Even the Finance Ministry has clarified that UPI transactions will remain free after a rumour surfaced that the government is planning to impose a fee on the usage of UPI.
