Designing checkout around UPI

For most Indian consumer stores, UPI is how people expect to pay. Presenting it below card entry, or as one option in an undifferentiated list, works against ingrained behaviour and shows up directly in completion rates.

The better pattern hands off to whichever UPI application the customer already uses and trusts, which is fewer steps than card entry and means no card details pass through your store at all. On desktop the equivalent is a QR code the customer scans with their phone, which is now an entirely normal interaction rather than a fallback.

As with app payments, the work is in the edges. A payment can succeed while the callback does not arrive, a customer can close the tab mid-transaction and return later, and a retried webhook must not create a second order. Making order creation idempotent against the payment reference is what separates a checkout that works in testing from one that survives a sale day.

GST correctness on every invoice

An Indian store issues tax invoices, and getting them right is not optional. That means the correct rate per item rather than per order, correct intra-state versus inter-state treatment based on the delivery address, the required fields present in the required format, and sequential numbering that survives cancellations.

Discounts and shipping charges are where implementations most often go wrong, because the tax treatment of a discount depends on how it is applied and the treatment of shipping depends on how it is billed. These are decisions to make deliberately with your accountant rather than assumptions to bake in silently.

Where e-invoicing thresholds apply to your business, invoices must be registered and carry the returned reference and QR code, with sensible handling for cancellation windows and for the portal being unavailable during a dispatch run. We build these as core scope because they fail in production rather than in demos.

How the project runs

1. 1

   Choose the platform on your numbers

   We look at volume, margin per order, catalogue complexity and who maintains it in two years, then recommend Shopify, WooCommerce or custom — including when that means less work for us.

2. 2

   Model the order lifecycle including COD

   Order states, courier remittance reconciliation, refusal and return-to-origin are designed before build, because retrofitting them creates accounting problems.

3. 3

   Build checkout UPI-first

   UPI handoff as the primary path with QR on desktop, and idempotent order creation against the payment reference so a retried callback cannot duplicate an order.

4. 4

   Get GST invoicing right with your accountant

   Per-item rates, intra-state versus inter-state treatment, discount and shipping tax treatment, and e-invoice registration where applicable — decided deliberately, not assumed.

5. 5

   Integrate logistics and returns as one flow

   Label generation, pickup, tracking, return-to-origin and stock reservation through the return cycle, built together rather than as separate features.

6. 6

   Load-test the checkout before launch

   The payment path is tested under spike conditions specifically, because that is where a campaign actually fails.

What you get on every project

• A written scope with fixed milestones before any development starts — no open-ended hourly billing.
• A staging URL you can check at any time, so progress is visible rather than reported.
• One named point of contact, not a ticket queue.
• Invoicing in INR, under Easywork Solutions Private Limited.
• Full source code, design files and hosting credentials transferred to you on final payment.
