Kiwi will offer RuPay credit card to users to make UPI payments

The leadership expects to onboard 2 Mn users in eighteen months


Kiwi, a credit card platform, has announced the launch of its all-in-one “Credit on UPI,” solution for customers. Certified by the NPCI, Kiwi is the first app in India that will help customers experience “Credit on UPI” by issuing Rupay Cards in partnership with banks.

With this launch, the company aims to create one of the largest direct-to-consumer (D2C) models in the credit market through its mobile application, which offers users the ability to make payments using either a credit card or bank account directly through their phones in a secure manner.

Speaking about the launch, Siddharth Mehta, co-founder, Kiwi, said, “UPI has become the most inclusive mode of payment in India, with over 30 crore unique users and 5 crore merchants onboarded on the platform. With the launch of Kiwi app, for the first time in India, users can now leverage the power of a (RuPay) credit card with the convenience and ease of UPI. Our vision is to enable access to credit on UPI for 1 million users over the next 18 months.”

Kiwi users will be issued a RuPay credit card, digitally and instantly. Post receiving the card, users will be able to link the card to UPI on the app and will be able to use the “Credit on UPI” transactions facility at offline as well as online stores. The Kiwi app will also help users manage their cards with a host of facilities like blocking cards, increasing limits, and making card payments while rewarding them for every transaction.

Praveena Rai, COO, NPCI said, “In our step towards attaining the goal of ‘Digital Payments for All’, Kiwi will be a game-changer in the Indian credit card industry. With the monthly expenditure on UPI P2M transactions amounting to approximately Rs. 3.2 lakh crore, which is almost 2.5x larger than the monthly credit card spends, Kiwi is set to capitalize on a significant untapped market. Looking at the whitespace that Kiwi is addressing, we’re confident that their model will support plenty of Indian credit card users on a daily basis.”

what is so great in axis ace brother ... everyone seems to go behind this one specific card even after many shitty devaluations
Its still one of the best card in the market because of 2 reasons:

1) You get no nonsense 5% cashback on utility bill payment. I know there's capping of ₹500 but ain't ₹10k utility bill enough for one household?!

2) You get *unlimited* 2% cashback on other online & offline spends. No other card matches this benefit specially for offline spends.

If I get a chance, I would take this card solely for 2% cashback benefit. It's more than enough to recover the fee. Utility cashback is icing on the cake.

I get this but I hardly have 2k utility bill per month .. and 2% is pretty useless as they have removed that for many MCCs...
Agreed for offline if you have hospital bills this is unbeatable .....
but general use case 600 fee is worthless I feel

And maybe if you abuse using apps like coupe etc , you may milk it.... but in general use case I feel it is shitty for me atleast....

Yeah it depends on person to person. I was talking about general use case only as I have Flipkart card and I'm using its 1.5% cashback feature for many day to day spends. If I get ace, it'll be even more beneficial with its 2% cashback feature. Not talking about any card abuse apps.

I guess it depends on individual use case. First-year fee is easily avoidable with 10K worth of spending. Moreover, I have about 2–3 lakhs worth of offline transactions where I receive 0-1% cashback with my current cards. So it would be beneficial for me.
