Paytm has started rolling out a new feature called ‘Hide Payments’, giving users more control over how their UPI transaction history appears inside the app. With this update, users can move selected transactions out of the main history view and keep them in a separate, protected section. Nothing gets deleted, but it becomes harder for others to see those entries at a glance.
Right now, Paytm is the only UPI app offering this option. The company says it built the feature after many users asked for better privacy, especially people who share phones, make sensitive purchases, or simply want a cleaner payment history.
The hidden transactions are still part of your account and remain secure. You can access them anytime using your device PIN or biometric lock.
