Reliance Jio gives its user an option to set up auto-pay for recharge using is i payment. Telecom service provider has partnered with National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) To provide this functionality of hassle free recharge to the users. Users can automate the recharge process by selecting their preferred plan and have to remember the recharge due date or their plan amount. For amounts up to Rs 5,000, users will not be required to enter the UPI PIN to validate the recharge. However, if the recharge amount exceeds this limit, the user will need to verify his identity through UPI authentication.
In addition, users can create, modify or disable e-mandates for selected tariff plans as per their requirement. Currently, the option has been rolled out only for prepaid users, with postpaid still having to manually pay the bill online or physically in the store.
The option of autopay recharge via UPI was introduced by Jio after the Reserve Bank of India issued new guidelines for auto-debit transactions last year. The new guidelines make re-certification mandatory for auto debut and recurring payment of recharge, fare, insurance premium and other such facilities.
Subsequently, NPIC introduced the UPI autopay functionality, allowing users to set up e-mandate for recurring payments up to Rs 2,000 for electricity, mobile bills, insurance, OTT subscriptions and other such payments.
