Enjoy a host of benefits

One of the biggest benefits of this feature is that it is entirely free of charge. Paytm does not levy a fee or charge you any amount for making any bank transfers from your Paytm wallet. Completely free of cost without any surprise or hidden charges, the Paytm wallet transfers are a much economical option in comparison to IMPS which is commonly used by banking apps and can result in charges imposed on transaction in addition to tax levied for using the service.

Another major benefit of this feature is that it can be used to transfer money to all bank accounts, even those that aren’t Paytm users. Imagine you are using your Paytm wallet for making your monthly payments like rent, electricity bill, kid’s school bus payment etc and suddenly a non-Paytm user pops up who insists on getting a bank transfer. Fret not, now you won’t have to leave things midway to open your net banking apps for making that particular payment; the ‘Transfer to Bank’ feature will allow you to make this payment seamlessly while still being on the Paytm app.

For instance, if your parents don’t use UPI, you can still fire up Paytm to transfer money into their bank accounts. All you need is their account details and Paytm makes the rest of it easy for you.

An alternative way to make a bank transfer is by clicking on the ‘Pay’ option that pops when you enter ‘Paytm Wallet’. A QR code scanner opens up that you can use to scan the UPI QR code of the recipient and make the transfer from either your linked bank account or your Paytm wallet.

Safe and secure payment solution

Being RBI-approved, Paytm wallet is a completely safe and secure way of making payment, paying utility bills and making bank transfers to friends and vendors. In case you’ve mistakenly added extra money to your wallet, and you’re not comfortable with keeping a huge amount in your Paytm wallet, a simple push of buttons can help you reverse the transaction and transfer the money back into your bank account.

One of the most trusted digital transaction apps, Paytm’s zero charge on wallet to bank transfers has not just made transactions hassle-free but also helped in increasing its popularity as well as its efficiency.
