Claim

Google Pay Is Not A Payment System Operator And Is Thus Not Protected By The RBI

Fact

The claim misrepresents a story in India Today where Google Pay tells the Delhi HC that it is not a payments operator but an authorised third-party provider of UPI and was viral in 2020. BOOM found that while UPI is developed for banks, third-party entities can facilitate them through banking partners called 'PSPs', making UPI transactions secured and eligible for redressal through the RBI.
