This will be issued in the same denominations as coins and paper currency and distributed through intermediaries.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It works similarly to physical rupees, and the users can transfer digital currency through a digital wallet offered by the bank and stored on mobile phones and devices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The digital transaction can be both person-to-person and person-to-merchant. In order to make payments to the merchants, you can use <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/QR_code\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">QR codes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The best part of digital currency is that it is more secure compared to physical cash. No doubt that there are high chances that you may lose physical rupees, which is not possible with digital currency.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Therefore, the demand for e-rupee is becoming high worldwide. In today\u2019s time, many countries have their own currency.
