The Full Form of QSAM is Query Service on Aadhaar Mapper.
To facilitate this process, another service called “Query Service on Aadhaar Mapper (QSAM)”is
being launched whereby a customer will be able to raise a query on status of his Aadhaar number
seeded at the bank level and mapped on the Aadhaar mark at NPCI. Aadhaar number registered in
the Aadhaar Mapper of NPCI is the pre-requisite for any Aadhaar based money transfer. Therefore,
a simple process has been set up whereby a customer will also be able to know whether the number
has been seeded and with which bank. This facility is aimed at providing information on
beneficiary’s current state of account.
Launching these two products at an event in Mumbai in the presence of banking stalwarts, Shri
Nandan Nilekani, Chairman, UIDAI, recognized the usefulness of the functionalities created by NPCI
and opined :“The person to person money transfer using Aadhaar as a financial address will
be of huge convenience for remittances and enable movement towards a cashless economy.
We congratulate NPCI on building this new capability leveraging Aadhaar “says Shri Nilekani”.
