Step 1: Open the Google Pay app on your smartphone and select ‘Pay phone number’.
Step 2: Enter the phone number of the person you want to send the money to. Step 3: Tap the profile of the recipient.

Step 4: Once you’ve selected the recipient’s profile, tap on the ‘Pay’ option at the bottom left corner of the screen.
Step 5: Type in the amount you want to pay. You can also add a note to go along with the payment. Step 6: Tap on ‘Pay’ and enter your 6-digit UPI pin. The payment will be made to the recipient.

Conclusion
This is how you can send money to any number on Google Pay. It is generally advised to send money using a QR code, because a phone number may be linked to several different accounts. The QR code is unique for every account linked to a UPI service. If your transaction fails to go through, wait for 2-3 business for the amount to be refunded to your bank account. If you do not receive a refund after that duration, contact your bank’s local branch.
