HMD Global has launched the new Nokia 105 2G and the Nokia 106 4G feature phones in India, both with inbuilt UPI 123PAY functionality, enabling users to securely and seamlessly perform digital transactions easily.
The 105 is the successor to last year’s model, and the Nokia 106 is a 4G model.
UPI 123PAY
UPI 123PAY is NPCI’s instant payment system for feature phone users who can use Unified Payments Interface (UPI) payment service in a safe and secure manner.
Through UPI 123PAY, feature phone users will be able to undertake a host of transactions based on four technology alternatives such as calling an IVR (interactive voice response) number, app functionality in feature phones, missed call-based approach and proximity sound-based payments.
