Yes, you can carry out UPI payments through multiple platforms on a smartphone, without the internet.

The USSD service is basically a service launched in India for all mobile users comprising non-smartphone users by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) in November 2021, before the UPI network was launched in the country.

But in August 2016, NPCI integrated the two digital payment methods (UPI and *99#), allowing users to send and receive money using a UPI ID or payment address.

If you select UPI, you will need to enter the beneficiary’s UPI ID.
