RuPay release a circular for "RuPay Credit Card Bill Payment Through BBPS"


Recognizing the significance of credit card bill payment for credit card users, it is imperative to establish a standard platform that ensures secure, interoperable, and accessible bill payment functionality. In line with this objective, NBBL has released the necessary guidelines and changes for enabling credit card bill payments through the Bharat Bill Payment System (BBPS). These guidelines are outlined in the operating circular NPCl/2022-23/BBPS/007, subject "Bharat Bill Payment System — Standardization of Retail Credit Card Category," dated 5th December 2022 (Annexure A).

It is important for credit card issuers, to provide this feature to their RuPay credit card customers for a rich and seamless experience.

This enablement will significantly elevate the customer experience by facilitating a convenient and frictionless credit card bill payment process.

Are visa and MasterCard are not already there on bbps for CC bill payments?
I can see them in the mobile banking apps.
Or am I missing something here? @Abhishek012

Only BOB and Kotak are BBPS Biller

Mobile Banking Apps use Billdesk for Processing Bill Payments of other Bank's Credit Cards not BBPS.

To identify a BBPS Biller, check for the logo of BBPS against that Biller
 
It mean we will be able to pay all CC bill through payzapp... mean 2l loaded per month and payment of CC!!!!
You can load 2 lakh per month but can only use 1 lakh per month and only Rs. 50k per transaction. So, if your CC bill is > 50k then you can't pay bill through paywapp wallet, have faced this issue.
 
I just want every other bank to implement the way we can pay credit card bills directly through our customized VPA handle:
cc.91<mobile><last 4 digits of credit card>@<bank>. This will solve 90% of the payment issues that banks are currently handling and because it gets settled into account quickly, the customer does not have any headache in following up pending settlements or failed payments.

ICICI has implemented it but they need full card number.
