Check Your Internet Connection<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Since AEPS relies on an active internet connection, ensure your device has stable Wi-Fi or mobile data.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data<\/strong>\u00a0to see which works better.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Restart your router<\/strong>\u00a0if using Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Test your connection speed<\/strong>\u00a0using tools like Fast.com.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>2. Verify AEPS Registration Details<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Ensure all details entered during AEPS registration are correct:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Aadhaar number<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Must be linked to your bank account.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Bank IIN (Institution Identification Number)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Should match your bank\u2019s AEPS details.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Biometric data<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Ensure fingerprints\/IRIS scans are correctly registered with UIDAI.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">If any details are wrong, re-register with the correct information.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Restart and Reconnect the Biometric Device<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">If your fingerprint scanner or IRIS device isn\u2019t responding:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Disconnect and reconnect<\/strong>\u00a0the device.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Update drivers<\/strong>\u00a0(if using an external biometric scanner).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Clean the scanner<\/strong>\u00a0to remove dust or smudges affecting recognition.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>4.

Why does my AEPS transaction fail after successful registration?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">This could be due to\u00a0<strong>server issues, incorrect Aadhaar linkage, or biometric mismatches<\/strong>. Verify your details and retry.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. How do I know if my Aadhaar is AEPS-enabled?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Your Aadhaar is automatically AEPS-enabled if it\u2019s linked to a bank account. Check via\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npci.org.in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NPCI\u2019s AEPS website<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0or your bank.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Can I use AEPS without a biometric device?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">No, AEPS requires\u00a0<strong>fingerprint or IRIS authentication<\/strong>\u00a0for transactions.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. What should I do if my fingerprint isn\u2019t recognized?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Clean your fingers and the scanner.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Re-register fingerprints at an Aadhaar center.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Try an alternate finger.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>5. How long does AEPS registration take to activate?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Usually\u00a0<strong>instant<\/strong>, but some banks may take\u00a0<strong>24-48 hours<\/strong>\u00a0to process.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">A\u00a0<strong>device not connecting after AEPS registration<\/strong>\u00a0can be frustrating, but most issues are fixable with the right steps. Start by checking your internet, re-verifying registration details, and ensuring biometric devices work properly.
