In order to use Aadhaar-based onboarding, users will need to enter the first six digits of their Aadhaar number to initiate the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To complete the authentication, users will have to enter the OTPs received from UIDAI and their bank, after which the bank will complete the process and users can set their UPI pin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Post set up, users will be able to use Google Pay to make transactions and check their account balance. Google will not store Aadhaar number and merely acts as a facilitator in sharing the Aadhaar number with the NPCI for validation, the company shared in a press release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Increase the Penetration of Digital Payments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAligned with the Government\u2019s vision to drive financial inclusion, this feature will further strengthen our efforts to drive deeper penetration for digital payments in India.
