YES Bank starts UPI payment facility via RuPay credit cards
July 07, 2023
There is excellent news for all the users of the RuPay credit card. The Yes Bank RuPay credit card is now available on the NPCI-operated Bhim App (BHIM). This means you can link your RuPay credit card to the BHIM App and pay at any store or mall, by simply scanning the Merchant United Payments Interface (UPI) QR Code. You can link RuPay credit cards from 9 banks to the BHIM app.
In June 2022, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) authorised users to link their credit cards to the UPI. RuPay credit card and UPI link was launched last year. It is only possible with certain banks that have permitted the connecting of their RuPay credit cards to UPI.
With this facility, you can now pay with your credit card by scanning the QR code or making payments to online merchants. P2P payments are not possible. Aside from BHIM, several banks’ RuPay credit card is now available on select UPI apps such as Google Pay, Paytm, PhonePe, PayZapp, and Freecharge.
Now you can scan the merchant UPI QR code and select the RuPay credit card and complete the payment by entering the UPI PIN.
Similarly, Canara Bank and Kotak Mahindra Bank introduced UPI payments to merchants through their RuPay credit cards in June. Axis Bank, HDFC Bank, Indian Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Punjab National Bank, Union Bank of India and YES Bank are among the other banks that have permitted the linking of RuPay credit cards to UPI.
