Paytm QR code generator
Enter your Paytm UPI ID and get a QR code and payment link instantly. Free, nothing stored, and payable from every UPI app — not only Paytm.
Check your handle first. Paytm moved many users off
@paytm to sponsor-bank handles after the 2024 RBI action on Paytm Payments
Bank. Confirm your current UPI ID in the app before printing a QR.
NPCI requires extra confirmation in the payer’s app for payments above ₹2,000 to a new payee. This is a security rule, not an error.

@paytm and the sponsor-bank handles
Paytm originally issued UPI handles through its own Paytm Payments Bank, which is where
@paytm came from. In January 2024 the Reserve Bank of India barred Paytm
Payments Bank from accepting fresh deposits and credit transactions, and Paytm migrated UPI
users onto handles sponsored by other banks:
@paytm— Paytm Payments Bank (legacy)@ptaxis— Axis Bank@ptsbi— State Bank of India@ptyes— Yes Bank@pthdfc— HDFC Bank
If you print a QR built on an old handle that has since been retired, payments to it will fail. Generate from whatever the app shows you today, and test it with a ₹1 payment before printing anything. Full handle directory →
Things worth knowing
Any app can pay it
The QR encodes an NPCI-standard payment URL. Someone using PhonePe or Google Pay can pay your Paytm UPI ID without installing Paytm.
Paytm blocks bank-account QRs
Like PhonePe, Paytm refuses QR codes addressed by account number and IFSC. Why, and what to use instead →
Leave the name blank
The payer sees the verified name on your bank account either way. A custom name only risks triggering a mismatch warning.
Merchant QR is different
A Paytm for Business QR shows your shop name and settles to a merchant account. That comes from Paytm, not from a generator.
Frequently asked questions
Can I still use my old @paytm UPI ID?
Only if the app still shows it as active. Check in Paytm under UPI settings — if a different handle is listed now, use that one. Send yourself ₹1 to confirm before you print or publish the QR.
Can I set a fixed amount?
Yes. Enter it above and it is encoded into the QR, so the payer’s app opens with that amount filled in. More on this →
Does receiving money cost anything?
No. UPI transfers to a personal account carry no MDR and settle instantly. UPIPE is free and takes no cut.
