What is UPay & How to Earn Money from UPay app?

In this pandemic time, people face so many unfortunate circumstances without a proper job or income.

So everyone is already surfing the internet to find small or part-time jobs to fill their current income issues.

That’s why we’ve come up with a simple way to make a couple of thousands (2K to 10K) with ease using a simple app called UPAY.

Yes, you’re right that I said a couple of thousands. I’m not going to lie to your face that you can earn in thousands.

But, still, it’s money.

And as far as I know, you can earn with the UPAY app around 10K per month if you know where to tap.

So, let’s make some bucks, people 🙂

Before we begin, we need to know what we’re getting into ourselves.

What is UPay app from Sri Lanka? Who owns UPay?

Upay is nothing but an online money transaction app available for both Android & iOS.

Like the Frimi, by Nation Trust Bank, SDB is powering the UPay. So, SDB owns UPay.

The app was released on Jan 14, 2018, and they are still improving the app and releasing updates. So it’s pretty much alive.

It has 3.8 out of 5 ratings in the Play Store and 4.2 in the App Store.

Still, the UPay app is receiving some reports about the function and features of the app.
But I hope they are working on fixing every issue users encounter one by one.

Trust – Is UPay a scam?

So now it’s time to know the answer to an important question “Is the UPay app a scam like some other online fraudulent apps?”.

Well, NO.

As one of the oldest banks in Sri Lanka, SDB is powering the UPAY. It is unlikely to think, UPAY could be a scam.

Because this bank was licensed and established in 1997. After a decade, three top-tier global organizations: the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the Netherlands Development Finance Company (FMO), and SBI Holdings, invested in this bank to expand.

After that, SDB became one of the top corporate banks in the country around 2019.

How does this earning system work?

UPAY provides a referral system to the users to make some money.

When someone installs the UPAY app through your link, you will get a commission for every transaction.

How long can I earn money from UPay?

Not long, I believe, but you can earn as much as you can while it’s here. There is no limit to profiting.

So why not give it a try? But there is something you must know.

The reason I hope so is, this is one of a marketing strategy. When SDB gets enough users for UPAY, these earning systems will be gone.

Back in 2018, Frimi provided unbelievable cashback offers on everything and free cash transfers at the start. But after they got sufficient customers, it’s gone.

That’s normal but, I’m telling you this so you wouldn’t get your hopes high.
