Creating your UPI QR Code for easy FASTag Recharge

Let's accept the fact that we live in a world with QR codes. QR (Quick Response) codes have made our lives very simple.

So I thought of making lives simple for the frequent travellers across Toll Plazas, who will now need to recharge their FASTag's frequently. 

My now many of us know that NPCI has made our lives easy by enabling FASTag recharges seamless by transferrring the recharge amount to the UPI ID/VPA as per your FASTag linked Bank. For example: netc.@

I thought of going 1 Step above to make thing more simple. How about creating a QR code for the UPI ID/VPA linked to your FASTag. I will continue with the example of Vehicle Number MH02AB1234, which is procured through HDFC Bank.

To generate the QR code do the following:

1. Visit https://upiqr.in/.

2. Enter "Receiver/Payee Name" as "HDFC BANK LTD FASTAG". Please change this as per the Bank details of your linked FASTag.

3. Enter "Receiver/Payee VPA" as "netc.mh02ab1234@hdfcbank". Please change this as per the Bank details of your linked FASTag.

4. Now click on "Generate". You will now be presented with a QR Code, which can be downloaded as a PDF or Printed.

5. To make your life simple, I will suggest that you print this QR code and stick it in your Vehicle at a visible location. 

So next time before approaching a Toll Plaza, just scan this QR Code through BHIM, Google Pay, PayTM UPI, PayZapp, Pockets, etc.... and make the necessary recharge to your FASTag balance.

Isn't it simple? Give it a try and share your thoughts.

Happy driving!
