The UPI Illusion: Why Small Spends Yield Zero Rewards

RuPay credit cards on UPI were marketed as a revolution, but the fine print contains a massive caveat. To protect small merchants, the government mandated zero fees on small transactions, which means the banks earn nothing—and pass zero rewards on to you.

    1. The ₹2000 ThresholdTo protect small merchants from Merchant Discount Rate (MDR) fees, the NPCI mandated that transactions under ₹2000 yield zero interchange fee to the bank.
  • loyalty
    2. Zero RewardsBecause banks earn absolutely no interchange revenue on these small UPI spends, they award zero reward points and zero cashback for UPI transactions under ₹2000.
  • block
    3. Merchant Category RestrictionsPeer-to-Peer (P2P) transfers to friends and payments to non-registered personal merchants (P2PM) are blocked entirely on RuPay credit cards to prevent cash rotation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did I not get any reward points for scanning a QR code with my RuPay credit card?expand_more
If the transaction was under ₹2000, or if the QR code belonged to an unregistered small merchant (P2PM), the bank earns no interchange fee and therefore awards zero points.
Can I transfer money to a friend's bank account using my RuPay credit card?expand_more
No, RuPay credit cards on UPI only support payments to registered merchant (P2M) QR codes, not personal accounts (P2P transfers).
Are there any extra charges for using a RuPay credit card on UPI?expand_more
No, there is no surcharge for the consumer, but the merchant pays a Merchant Discount Rate (MDR) fee for transactions above ₹2000.
