Make UPI Payments With Credit Cards Of Major Banks With These Steps

The digital payments system of India has been reshaped by the Unified Payments Interface or UPI. The reason behind the massive success of this payment interface is its ease of use, instant transactions, 24 hrs availability and highly encrypted transfers. From street vendors to shopping malls, UPI is accepted everywhere. But irrespective of being so successful, UPI still lacked some features. That’s why the Government took the initiative to link UPI with credit cards also.

UPI Payments Via Credit Cards

To make UPI payments through a credit card from any bank, the person will have to add his credit card to his or her preferred UPI app. The linking service was only limited to bank accounts previously, but later the option was introduced to add credit and debit cards also.

So, when RBI announced, it informed that only the Rupay credit cards will be able to be linked for a short period of time and later all the others like Visa and MasterCards will be able to be linked.
