Features & Capabilities

CheqUPI is designed for foreign nationals and NRIs to transact in India with the ease locals enjoy—fast, secure UPI payments, QR code payments at millions of merchants, online payments with your own UPI handle, and wallet top-ups using international cards.

Getting started is simple: download the app, sign up with an international or Indian phone number, pay a one-time activation fee, top up your wallet, and complete in-person verification. CheqUPI is powered by Transcorp International Limited, RBI-regulated PPI and AD2 licenses, with data stored securely in India. Note regulatory restrictions: some FATF-listed nationals may be restricted; the app operates within Indian borders and requires in-person verification at partner branches with required documents (passport/visa for foreigners, OCI for OCIs, etc.). Payments are limited to registered merchants.

User Reviews

Cheq helps foreigners pay Indian merchants via UPI using international cards/non-Indian numbers, with on-site verification that can speed onboarding. However, repeated issues with verification, weak support, frequent outages, questionable fees, and no peer-to-peer payments limit reliability and overall usefulness for many travelers.

Pros

Enables foreigners to pay Indian merchants via UPI using international cards and non-Indian numbers, reducing the need for cash.
Onboarding can be done with non-Indian numbers/cards, which is traveler-friendly.
Doorstep/in-person verification support (eg, Jazz) often speeds up the setup process.
Widely usable at merchants in India, making travel payments more convenient and less dependent on cash.

Cons

Verification is often unreliable and slow: in-person visits are required, agents may not show up, and some users can’t complete KYC from abroad.
Customer support is perceived as slow or ineffective, with long response times and frequent difficulties resolving charges/refunds.
Frequent app outages or reliability issues (scan sometimes not opening, add money not available, etc.) disrupt usage.
Fees and pricing can be unclear or unfavorable (activation fees charged upfront, deposits/loads with additional charges, and misleading ‘0%’ claims).
No peer-to-peer payments; the app only supports merchant payments, limiting usefulness for paying individuals or drivers.

Recent reviews

The team works via WhatsApp to go through the process of verification and activation. Someone from the team visits you at your location and activates your account. Overall a seamless process.
