How to Register UPI App to Transfer & Receive Money [Step by Step]

UPI means unified payment interface. It’s a new way of transferring and receiving money directly into your bank account instantly. It is like IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) but with new and simple user interface. Every transaction is as simple as sending an email and best thing is you don’t need to add payee details like Full name, Bank name, IFSC code, Account number, MMID etc.

For sending and receiving payment you can use any Indian bank UPI app with a unique username called VPA (Virtual Payment Address). For example username@pnb, username2@sbi
though you can also use Aadhaar number to receive payment and other old methods like Account number and IFSC code, MMID and mobile number.
Register UPI App

What is exactly Virtual Payment Address (VPA)

In UPI payment system you create a unique username like a unique email id for your bank account such as username@sbi. So whenever you want to receive payment you just give your unique id and that's it, and this unique id known as virtual payment address.

Even when you are doing online shopping you don't need to enter your bank name, your name, debit card number, card expiry date, CVV etc. just enter your VPA and use your mPIN for payment that's it.

Novel Alloy Could Produce Hydrogen Fuel from Sunlight

Scientists from the University of Kentucky and the University of Louisville have determined that an inexpensive semiconductor material can be "tweaked" to generate hydrogen from water using sunlight. The research, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, was led by Professors Madhu Menon and R. Michael Sheetz at the University of Kentucky Center for Computational Sciences, and Professor Mahendra Sunkara and graduate student Chandrashekhar Pendyala at the University of Louisville Conn Center for Renewable Energy Research. Their findings were published Aug. 1 in the Physical Review B. The researchers say their findings are a triumph for computational sciences, one that could potentially have profound implications for the future of solar energy. Using state-of-the-art theoretical computations, the University of Kentucky-University of Louisville team demonstrated that an alloy formed by a 2 percent substitution of antimony (Sb) in gallium nitride (GaN) has the right electri...
