About UPI Check
Check UPI ID shape and identify the issuing bank/PSP handle — privately, in-browser.
A UPI ID splits at @ into a payer name and a bank/PSP handle. This validator enforces the character rules, length limits, and single-@ shape, then names the issuer for known handles like okhdfc, ybl, and paytm.
Format-valid never proves the VPA exists or belongs to anyone — only a ₹1 collect request does that. Everything runs in your browser.
Where it is used
Validating payment forms, verifying customer UPI handles before collecting, and testing VPA inputs.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why did my valid-looking ID fail?
- Usually spaces, double @, or special characters in the name. Handles must be pure letters — numbers there always fail.
- Does valid mean I can send money to it?
- No. Send a ₹1 collect request first; only the recipient’s approval proves a live VPA.
- Can handles contain numbers?
- Per NPCI guidance, no — handles are alphabetic PSP/bank codes. Names may mix letters, digits, dots, hyphens, and underscores.
