Is anyone using e-Rupi digital currency? If anyone registered for this, Kindly share your experience


Reliance Retail launched the first in-store acceptance at Mumbai's Freshpik store.
 
Any advantage of using it ?

Based on this, its like our 'digital voucher purchase'.

Ex:

- We purchase 2000Rs. Lifestyle vouchers and will receive a code and PIN.
- Now we have to visit only 'Lifestyle stores' because that voucher can be redeemable at that brand only.
- Share the code at the counter along with PIN to complete the transaction.
- Here, no bank involved and also no physical copy for that voucher.
- This process also doesn't share any of our personal data because we didn't use any bank account here.
- This also has less failure rate because we do not need Internet at that time, so no server involvement from our side.

Similarly, e-Rupi is 'digital rupee voucher' (can be redeemed as cash instead of cloths in above example).

I understood this much, let me know if any corrections or entirely wrong.

The advantage is that if you want to give someone money for paying school fees or let's say for groceries (as a help to someone) then it can be used only for that specific purpose. Or say government wants to give money to a farmer as a subsidy for fertilizer they that can be used for buying the fertilizer only. It's one of the only benefits of e-₹UPI 🤪😅

Fun fact : You can encash that voucher by just asking the merchant to take it and give cash with some or no charge (depends solely on merchant)🤣
