Error when you add or restore a bank account on Google Pay
- Joint bank accounts aren’t supported on Unified Payments Interface (UPI).
- You will not be able to add a joint bank account linked with the phone number registered with Google Pay.
- Add a single owned savings or current bank account.
- Check if the phone number registered with Google Pay is associated with any other joint account with the same bank.
- If yes, update the bank account you're trying to add with a different phone number.
- If you hold more than one single owned account with the same bank, check if the customer ID for these accounts are the same.

What is a customer ID
A customer ID is a unique identification number that the bank gives to customers with a savings, current, loan, or fixed deposit account.
Identify multiple customer IDs

- Passbook
- Account statement
- Welcome letter
- Checkbooks
- You can also check the 11-digit Customer Identification File (CIF) ID printed on the first page of your passbook and account statement.
