YES Bank Upi

About UPI

Unified Payment Interface or UPI is developed by National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) to offer a digital platform for all monetary transactions in India. YES Bank has also launched its own UPI application to match with the pace of the constantly evolving economic structure of the country.

Let’s try and understand UPI in detail before using it. UPI is a digital platform using which people can easily transfer money from one account to another using their smartphones. It is set up on the structure of Immediate Payment Service (IMPS) to allow money transfers via Virtual Payment Address (VPA). A VPA is a unique identity or address which is given to the user at the time of signing up with a UPI Application.

This identity can be a user’s VPA, mobile number, Aadhaar number or account number combined with the IFSC code. A user can choose any convenient username as long as all the required details have been appropriately furnished. The payment made through the ID can be confirmed using MPIN or Mobile Banking Personal Identification Number. The MPIN is a code that is shared only between the sender and the receiver, thus making the transaction secure.

Yes Bank UPI

YES Bank now offers UPI services to all its account holders.  The service will allow account holders to transfer money instantly over the phone without any need to visit the bank or fill up any forms.

YES Bank UPI offers following services to all its users:

• Financial Services: Various financial services can be availed with YES Bank UPI including utility bill payments, rent payments, etc.

• Change MPIN: Similar to changing passwords, users can easily change existing MPIN via the UPI application.
