Now, earn Rs 10 for every person you refer to the BHIM app
Notably, the PM had recently expressed
gratitude to the people saying over the last few months the country had
witnessed an atmosphere in which people in large numbers participated in
the digital payment, the 'Digidhan' movement.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday suggested an easy way for
youngsters to make a quick buck this summer vacation. He said for every
person you introduce to the BHIM app, you will get a cash back of Rs 10.
"If you refer a mere 20 people a day to the app, you can earn Rs 200," he said.
Notably,
the PM had recently expressed gratitude to the people saying over the
last few months the country had witnessed an atmosphere in which people
in large numbers participated in the digital payment, the 'Digidhan'
movement.
Pushing for a less-cash economy, PM Narendra Modi said
the government's 'DigiDhan' movement for digital payment is a step
towards curbing the menace of corruption.
While paying rich
tributes to Dr B R Ambedkar on his 126th birth anniversary at the
Deekshabhoomi here, the Prime Minister also launched two new schemes
under the BHIM app for referral bonus to individual users and cash-back
for merchants to incentivise them.
"This DigiDhan movement is a
safai abhiyaan (cleanliness movement). It is to fight the menace of
corruption," said Modi addressing a public rally here.
Commenting
on the Aadhaar-based digital payment mobile application, he said, "The
BHIM app is positively impacting several lives across the country."
"We are reaching a time when the mobile phones will be where financial transactions will take place," he said.
Developed
by National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), the Aadhaar-linked
Bharat Interface for Money (BHIM) mobile app is based on the Unified
Payment Interface (UPI).
In December 2016, Modi had launched the
BHIM app for facilitating electronic payments by consumers. In March,
the government launched Aadhaar Pay, a new Android-based smartphone app.
The BHIM-Aadhaar app will pave the way for making digital payments by using the Aadhaar platform.
It
will enable every Indian citizen to pay digitally using their thumb
imprint on a merchants' biometric-enabled device, which could be a
smartphone having a biometric reader.
"Transactions can be possible (even) with less cash," Modi said.
Highlighting
the importance of digital transactions, the PM said, "Five policemen
guard an ATM. At times, there are problems in providing security to
someone's life but there is security for ATMs."
"There was an era
when the thumb was a sign of being illiterate. Now, the thumb (used for
Aadhaar-based transactions) has become your strength," Modi said.
Awards of Rs 250 crore have been given boost to the less-cash transactions, he said.
"Those who have got this award should now become ambassadors of a less-cash campaign," he said.
Any
citizen without access to smartphones, internet, debit or credit cards
will be able to transact digitally through the BHIM Aadhaar platform.
