After the latest update, users can now self-declare themselves as merchants on the app itself after which they can start accepting up to Rs 50,000 directly in their bank accounts.

In order to self-declare yourself as a merchant, head to the ‘Accept Payment’ in the updated version and choose ‘Bank Account’ after which the app will ask you to fill in your details. Please note that the wallet balance should not cross the Rs 20,000 limit after which the amount will be directly settled to the merchant’s bank account.
