THE most important comparison in the catalogue. Several apps switch from a person-to-person flow to a merchant flow when mc appears — changing limits, fees and whether the amount can be edited. P01 against P03 on the same app, same destination, same minute is the controlled experiment that shows it.
Expected
Paytm opens on its payment confirmation screen showing the payee and ₹2.00. THE most important comparison in the catalogue. Several apps switch from a person-to-person flow to a merchant flow when mc appears — changing limits, fees and whether the amount can be edited. P01 against P03 on the same app, same destination, same minute is the controlled experiment that shows it.
Limitations
- A browser cannot tell you whether an app is installed. "App did not open" and "app is not installed" look identical from here; AN-004 in the Android harness is what separates them.
- The iOS scheme used here is observed, not vendor-documented. A working result is evidence, not a supported integration.
Prerequisites
- A saved UPI profile with a payee address.
- On iOS: Paytm installed and registered for paytmmp://pay
- On Android: Paytm installed (net.one97.paytm).
Notes
- This scheme is observed, not vendor-documented. A result either way is evidence about today, not a supported integration.
How the lab runs it
Android: an intent:// URI naming net.one97.paytm, with no browser_fallback_url so a failure to open stays visible. iOS: the paytmmp://pay scheme carrying the same query.
