RuPay credit cards can be linked to UPI apps like Google Pay, PhonePe and Paytm. You scan any merchant QR code, pay from your credit limit, and get up to ~50 days of interest-free credit β plus rewards on many cards.
That means everyday payments at kirana stores, cafΓ©s and petrol pumps can now earn cashback or points, which was impossible with a regular debit-card UPI account.

Can I use a credit card on UPI?
Yes β but only RuPay credit cards. Add the card in your UPI app, set a UPI PIN, and pay any merchant by scanning their QR code.
Can I send money to friends with a credit card on UPI?
No. Credit card UPI works for paying merchants (shops, businesses), not for person-to-person transfers.
Are there charges for using a credit card on UPI?
Small merchant payments are usually free for you. Rewards on UPI may be capped, so check each card's terms.
Approval is at the bank's discretion. Check final terms on the bank's page before applying.
