An AEPS transaction<\/strong> is a banking transaction that allows a customer to access an Aadhaar-linked bank account using Aadhaar authentication and biometric verification through an authorised AEPS touchpoint.

But what actually happens when you make an AEPS transaction?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A customer can visit an AEPS retailer or Business Correspondent, provide the required bank and Aadhaar details, select the required banking service and complete biometric authentication.
