The move has prompted a sizable proportion of smartphone users to migrate from traditional methods of cash or even internet banking through web to the use of UPI. There have been a lot of driving factors in the decision making of the users to opt for the migration which can be attributed to transaction speed, the ease of convenience in the use, a simple and friendly user experience, cash back or other such offers from the UPI apps, as also the government policy to push for cashless economy. The study aims to find the motivation and the driving factors of the users to adopt this mode of transaction and what is their sentiment towards the same. The research studies prior literature and consumer behaviour towards UPI by conducting a survey on the end users of UPI.
