Keep your plans with family in India moving
When you are contributing to a shared expense in India, start with the amount needed in Indian rupees and check the full transfer summary before paying.
Know the currency
The currency of India is the Indian rupee (INR). For a transfer from pounds to INR, check the currency and amount shown for the recipient in the app.
Prepare your recipient’s details
Agree with your recipient which account or available receiving method to use. Do not assume a previous recipient’s bank details apply to a different family member.
What should I check when adding a bank recipient in India?
Check the account holder’s name and each bank-detail field requested by the app. If an IFSC is requested, confirm it with your recipient or their bank rather than guessing it from the branch name.
