The overseas arm of India’s National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) will build a digital payments system for Trinidad and Tobago, modelled after India’s United Payments Interface (UPI), according to a statement on Friday.
The NPCI International Payments Limited (NIPL) said its deal with the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Trinidad and Tobago is to build a payments platform for both person-to-person and person-to-merchant transactions.

The NPCI, a quasi-regulator under the central bank, is a public non-profit organisation that oversees India’s retail payment systems, including UPI, the country’s most popular mode of digital payments.
Earlier in the year, NIPL had agreed to develop digital payments systems for Peru and Namibia, using UPI as a blueprint.
