The UPI transactions initiated by the customer are received at remitter bank’s end, via NPCI. When NPCI sends authorization requests, the logs of the transactions are stored at MPower via API. In a day cycle wise UPI transactions are received in MPower from NPCI through files. Ten NPCI files are received in a single day.
