Canara Bank launch UPI-Interoperable Digital e-Rupee Mobile App for CBDC Transactions:​

Canara Bank has taken a pioneering step by launching the UPI interoperable Canara Digital Rupee app, becoming the first bank in India to do so.

Canara Bank, a leading player in the Indian banking sector, has taken a monumental step by introducing the UPI interoperable digital rupee mobile application. This move places Canara Bank at the forefront of innovation, becoming the first bank across both the public and commercial sectors to offer this pioneering feature. The app, named the Canara Digital Rupee app, marks a significant milestone as a part of the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) pilot project.

Enabling Seamless Transactions with UPI QR Codes​

This forward-thinking initiative empowers customers to seamlessly complete transactions through their smartphones. With the Canara Digital Rupee app, customers can effortlessly scan merchant UPI QR codes, facilitating payments using the digital currency. This streamlined process brings a new level of convenience to digital payments, enhancing the overall transaction experience for users.

Simplifying Merchant Adoption of Digital Currency Payments​

A distinctive aspect of this development is its positive impact on merchants. The Canara Digital Rupee app allows merchants to accept payments using their existing UPI QR codes, opening the doors to digital currency transactions without the need for a separate onboarding process for CBDC. This approach not only accelerates the adoption of digital currency but also encourages businesses to embrace innovative payment methods.

Leadership Insight: Revolutionizing the Indian Economy​

K. Satyanarayana Raju, the Managing Director and CEO of Canara Bank, commended the launch of the UPI-interoperable mobile application as a revolutionary stride towards digitizing the Indian economy. Raju emphasized that this application marks a pivotal advancement, enabling customers to relish the advantages of rapid and secure transactions facilitated by the RBI’s digital currency framework.

Accessible Across Platforms for Widespread Adoption​

The Canara Bank Digital Rupee mobile application is available for both Android and iOS users, ensuring inclusivity and accessibility across a wide range of smartphones. As per RBI regulations, the digital currency holds the status of legal tender, reinforcing the credibility of this innovative approach. The app’s launch marks a noteworthy milestone in India’s journey towards embracing digital currency, fostering financial modernization in the country.

But wait hold on, someone told here you can't send money to your digital rupee UPI vpa and here you successfully send to your Indus app digital rupee UPI vpa.

This is the content stored in the Indus Digital Rupee QR generated on 12 August. This shows that the vpa was already assigned to every wallet before interoperability feature came live. This also tells that the normal transaction was routed via this method earlier also.

Now we can send money from DR VPA to UPI VPA but not vice verca.

I guess DR VPA to DR VPA is allowed.
 
One basic question inter bank transfer is anyway available in paytm, gpay, phonepe and other upi apps so what is the benefit of having extra app for each bank in addition to bank app. Already all these apps choke the mobile performance. Unless these digital bank apps provide any monetary benefit no use adding these apps
