In December 2021 the Sabarimala temple in Kerala displayed 22 QR codes, so that devotees could give their offering, kanikka, by phone. In June 2022 Karnataka’s Muzrai Department began a trial with QR codes at two temples, among them Kollur Mookambika. “Devotees just have to scan the code and pay the offerings, using UPI payment apps,” Udayavani reported.
