The South Central Railway (SCR) now allows passengers to pay for tickets online using the UTS app. They can make payments through R-Wallet, Paytm, PhonePe, Google Pay, or internet banking.
The UTS app has an R-Wallet feature that lets users deposit up to Rs 20,000. Passengers using R-Wallet also get a 3% cashback on ticket purchases, making it a cost-saving option.
According to SCR’s latest press release, more people are using the UTS app. In 2023-24, about 83,510 passengers used the app daily. This year, the number has increased to 93,487, showing a 12% rise in users.
Previously, general ticket bookings had distance limits, but now passengers can book tickets from anywhere. This change helps avoid long queues at railway stations.
The UTS app is free to download on Android, iOS, and Windows devices. It also offers features like multi-language support, cashless payments, and customer assistance with guides and helplines.
