Google on Monday finally launched in India its UPI-backed payments application, Tez (fast in Hindi), which will allow you to securely pay for goods and services both online and offline, and also make person-to-person transactions.

“Send money to friends, instantly receive payments directly to your bank account and pay the nearby café with Tez, Google's new digital payment app for India,” the description of the Tez app reads on Google’s Play Store.

The internet search giant had been working with the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) to build the app in accordance with its Unified Payments Interface (UPI) standard.
