This information is shared by twitter users akshat_money and another person @#aniket
Note - UPI accept almost everywhere on Lanka QR codes.
He share this pic - While global credit & debit cards were not getting accepted, an Indian product (UPI) was getting accepted in Srilanka !!
UPI is accepted via Lanka QR code in Srilanka
Lanka QR code is comman and can be found at many places in Srilanka
You just need to scan Lanka QR via any UPI App (Currently, GPay, Phonepe, Paytm, Bhim app is live on UPI International)
Note - you need to activate your UPI International transaction from your UPI app setting.
On scanning, You will be asked to enable International UPI
As a second step, It will show the conversion rate and the amount in Indian Rupees
Conversion rate is better than market rate.
You need to follow the regular process of entering your PIN
Once you enter your PIN, your transaction will go through
Congratulations you have paid for Sri Lanka currency via UPI
He also confirmed only Rs180.16 debited from his bank account, no extra charges. Conversion fee already included.
If we compare with google rate then this is the best conversion rate.
Remember - Some banks dnt charge you conversion fee.
