# com.apple.developer.upi-device-validation

A Boolean value that indicates whether your app can use UPI device enrollment for NPCI financial transactions.

## Discussion

The Unified Payments Interface (UPI) system, developed by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), supports mobile-app financial transactions. This entitlement allows your app to display a non-editable Messages share sheet with a predefined recipient and token, and includes methods to verify the token was successfully transmitted to the carrier network.

With this entitlement, you can use <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/MessageUI/MFMessageComposeViewController/setUPIVerificationCodeSendCompletion(_:)>, which configures the instance of <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/MessageUI/MFMessageComposeViewController> with non-editable recipients and body fields. You also need this entitlement to use <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/CoreTelephony/CTCellularPlanStatus>.

You must be an account holder of a development team to get permission to use this entitlement. To request access, see [UPI device validation Entitlement Request](https://developer.apple.com/contact/request/upi-device-validation). Once you’re approved, add the entitlement to your app in the Xcode property list editor. Set the entitlement’s type to Boolean, and the corresponding value to YES.
