Select the option to pay a bill or transfer money to a bank account. Add your YES Bank credit card as a beneficiary using the IFSC code YESB0CMSNOC and your 16-digit credit card number as the account number. Enter the bill amount and authenticate with your UPI PIN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The amount will be credited to your credit card account instantly. Keep the UPI transaction reference ID as proof until the payment appears on your next statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One important limitation: UPI has a daily transaction limit of \u20b91,00,000 as mandated by RBI. If your outstanding balance exceeds this, you will need to use NEFT, IMPS, or net banking for the full amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Method 2- Pay via Net Banking (YES Bank Account Holders)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nLog in to YES Bank net banking through the official website. Navigate to the Credit Card tab. Select your credit card from the list. Choose the payment amount; you can pay the full outstanding, minimum due, or a custom amount. Confirm the payment from your linked savings account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The amount is debited immediately and reflected on your credit card account. You can also do this through the iris by YES Bank mobile app using the same savings account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Method 3- Pay via NEFT (From Any Bank Account)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nLog in to your bank’s net banking portal. Add your YES Bank credit card as a beneficiary. Use YESB0CMSNOC as the IFSC code and your 16-digit card number as the account number. Initiate a NEFT transfer for the desired amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n NEFT transactions are processed in half-hourly batches during working hours. On weekdays, expect the payment to reflect within 30 minutes to 2 hours. On weekends and bank holidays, processing may be delayed until the next working day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Method 4- Pay via IMPS (From Any Bank Account)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe process is the same as NEFT- add your YES Bank credit card as a beneficiary with IFSC code YESB0CMSNOC and your 16-digit card number. Choose IMPS instead of NEFT when initiating the transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n IMPS has a per-transaction limit that varies by bank, typically between \u20b92 lakh and \u20b95 lakh. Some banks charge a nominal fee for IMPS transfers, though many have made it free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Method 5- Pay via Auto-Debit (Standing Instruction)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nLog in to YES Bank net banking or the iris app. Navigate to the Credit Card section and select the auto-pay option. Choose whether to pay the full outstanding amount, the minimum amount due, or a fixed amount each month. Authenticate the mandate. A one-time registration charge of \u20b92 applies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once active, the amount will be automatically deducted from your linked YES Bank savings or current account on each due date. Make sure your savings account has sufficient balance before the due date to avoid a failed auto-debit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Method 6- Pay via Kiwi App<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nOpen the Kiwi app and navigate to your card details. Select the bill payment option. Link your savings account if you have not already done so. Enter the payment amount and confirm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the simplest option for Kiwi cardholders as the card and payment interface are integrated in one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Method 7- Pay via CRED<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nDownload the CRED app if you have not already. Add your YES Bank credit card by entering the card number. CRED will automatically fetch your outstanding balance and due date. Select the payment amount and choose your payment method within CRED (UPI, net banking, or debit card).<\/p>\n\n\n\n CRED processes payments via NEFT or UPI in the background. Depending on the method, the payment may take a few hours to 1-2 working days to reflect. It is advisable to pay at least 2-3 days before your due date when using CRED.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Method 8- Pay via BillDesk<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nVisit the BillDesk page for YES Bank cards (accessible from the YES Bank website). Enter your 16-digit credit card number and the payment amount. Select your bank and complete the payment via net banking or debit card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Processing takes 1-2 working days. This is a fallback option when other methods are unavailable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Method 9- Cash or Cheque at a Branch<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nMissing your YES Bank credit card payment deadline triggers several consequences that compound quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Late payment fees<\/strong> are charged based on your total outstanding balance. The fee slabs vary by card variant but can range from \u20b90 (for outstanding below \u20b9500) to \u20b91,300 or more for larger balances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Interest charges<\/strong> begin accruing on the outstanding balance from the date of each transaction, not from the due date. YES Bank charges between 3.49% and 3.99% per month (approximately 41.8% to 47.88% per annum), depending on the card variant. If you carry a balance forward, you also lose the interest-free period on new purchases until the full outstanding is cleared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Credit score impact<\/strong> is the most costly long-term consequence. A single missed payment is reported to credit bureaus and can lower your CIBIL score, which affects your ability to get loans or credit cards in the future.The simplest way to avoid all of this is to set up an auto-debit mandate or pay via UPI at least a few days before the due date.
