To Withdraw money,

– Go to any ATM that supports this cardless cash transaction facility
– Scan the QR Code on this ATM machine
– Enter the exact amount of money you need to withdraw
– Authenticate the transaction using UPI-enabled Mobile app
– After completing your transaction, withdraw the exact amount directly from ATM.

Keep in mind, these QR Codes are dynamic in nature. This means that with each transaction, these QR Codes keep on changing and therefore, they cannot be copied. This method also ensures completely secure transaction of money. However, initially the withdrawal under this new technology is likely to be capped under Rs 5,000. But as per sources, money withdrawal limit will be increased later.
