Latest Working Methods to Pay Credit Card Bill from Debit Cards

[sm9811911]

@sm9811911 Hi bro, Can I use 90000 at Cheq CC bill payments by using SBI debit card it fetches 900points or Utility Mcc 4900 only fetches RP on SBI Debit card.Can you confirm please

can’t confirm. I don’t use any of those 2.. account to wallet and account to account are excluded for sbi dc. Cheq has many mcc, some are quasi cash, so likely excluded.

Will Paying CC Bills in Cheq using SBI DC will fetch any rewards?

Received points for my July 20th payment on Jio finance. I like Jio better than Canara/Unipay because of its interface and ease to use.

Have done another 50K transaction yesterday ( canara + sbi Unipay + jio finance) combined.

Paid 48k kotak cc bill in 1 go using idfc dc on Canara hope they add it normally and dont take time in giving RPs. 🥲

Sbi virtual dc points nahi de raha hai kya bhaiyo ?

HDFC Millenia - hdfc BillPay, sbi unipay, paytm?? Airtel ?? Jiofinance ?? Canara BillPay ??

HDFC platinum - hdfc BillPay, sbi unipay, Airtel ?? Jiofinance ?? Canara BillPay ??

Indusind select visa - Paytm??

Indusind select MC - payzapp?? Cred ??

Are these above options working and providing reward points for cc payments after bbps implementation?

Most of you know the debit cards which are useful, but it’s difficult to keep track of which platforms to use, how to use because of devaluations/ limits.
I had written down current working methods for my personal use but thought of sharing with the community. Will appreciate any feedback. So here goes:

1) RBL signature plus dc: sbi unipay
1b) RBL Enterprise dc: sbi unipay
2) HDFC PLATINUM debit card: can be used on hdfc bill pay and sbi unipay
3)HDFC Millennia debit card: can be used to load Amazon/Mobikwik wallets for 1%. Can use hdfc bill pay or sbi unipay for 2.5%
4) indus visa signature, visa platinum and mastercard world : Use paytm and cred (Dreamplug Paytech merchant) for visa variants. Sbi unipay, HDFC Payzapp and Cheq(not working for most) for mastercard variant.
5) FI money ( infinity or salary variant) : pay 1.5k multiple times through cred using fi upi.
6) IDFC Debit cards: Pay cc bill using sbi unipay.
7) Axis Liberty dc : pay cc through sbi unipay for qtly voucher. Can use upi as well anywhere; no exclusions using upi. Bonus tip: Use axis gyftr portal / amazon to buy amazon gv from Liberty dc for weekend cashback.
8) Citi Priority on sbi unipay
9) sbi physical debit card on sbi unipay

SBI Unipay fails for trx above 1L. If trx fails, it is usually auto refunded within 5 working days. Please try with small amount first.

Update: Alternative to SBI unipay: ‘Airtel’ (2 merchant names, both work), ‘jio finance’ app Canara bbps website. They only support bbps cc bill payment. These give 4900 (utility) mcc.

Update 2: P B R G and thomasjackson mentioned even Dhani Pay has utility MCC (so an alternative to SBI Unipay). Non-BBPS cc can be paid. But KYC required. (havent tried myself)

Update 3: Full details with calculations on rewards added here: https://www.technofino.in/community...-card-bill-from-debit-cards.25788/post-634404

Update 4: SBI dc rewards update from 1st May. Details here
https://www.technofino.in/community...-card-bill-from-debit-cards.25788/post-643329

Ongoing issues 1) : Some have reported idfc dc is blocked while account is active. You can complaint to idfc, it gets solved in 3-5 days.
2) Indus dc points are not regular, so will have to wait and still no guarantee that you will get the points or correct number of points.
3) mastercard dc not working for some users on sbi unipay.
4) Jio finance app does not show failed trx in their history. But processes auto refunds after 2-3 working days. Do take screenshot as proof when payment fails.

Added axis rewards cc to HDFC bill pay yesterday and got this sms today.

"Biller Registration Rejected!
For CITICARD Bill xxxx on HDFC Bank BillPay
Reason: Biller is absent on BBPS. Try other payment solutions."

My earlier added Magnus is still showing on HDFC bill pay. Is it possible to pay using HDFC bill pay for cards that were previously added before the bbps mandate?

If it is assosicated with BBPS then yes, otherwise you can not pay because : RBI has mandated that all banks process credit card bill payments through the Bharat Bill Payment System (BBPS). So till then some banks card will be removed who previously were added as biller and new will not add unitl it's bank added to the list of BBPS. @Riva

So that's the odd thing. I have always been paying my Citi rewards cc bill via HDFC bill pay. Now after the migration, yesterday when I logged into HDFC bill pay, my Citi rewards cc was not showing, so I added it again under Axis CC and today I got this message.
Then this means that Axis is not under BBPS or the hdfc bill pay is still looking for Citi when registering the card. I am not sure.
If it's Axis not being on BBPS, then all Axos cards that are already registered on HDFC bill pay will fail.
So if anyone has paid an Axis card after the BBPS mandate on HDFC bill pay can confirm if the payment is going through.

Received this for newly added ICICI cards under BBPS biller also.

I just did a test payment of 500 rs to my rewards cc using hdfc bill pay and it immediately got credited to the card account in about 2 minutes. Now am not sure what the bill pay rejection sms means!!

Payment of INR 500 has been received towards your Axis Bank Credit Card XXxxxx on 22-07-24 - Axis Bank

Also made a test payment to my Magnus which was already registered on HDFC bill pay and that too got credited in 2 minutes.

Now just have to see if 1% cb is showing for these 2 transactions.

My test payment of inr 500 went through even though I got the msg. Do a test payment and check.

Just now paid to Apay card 100 Rs. successfully and credited also instantly. Not sure why HDFC sending such messages then.
