Here's a clear step-by-step guide to get your Slice UPI Credit Card using your existing Slice Savings Account:
How to Get Your Slice Credit Card (Using Your Savings Account)
Since you already have a Slice Savings Account, you are in an advantageous position. Slice (now Slice Small Finance Bank) uses your savings account activity and balance to assess credit eligibility - this works like a secured/linked credit card, meaning your savings balance helps establish your creditworthiness even if you have no prior credit history.
Step-by-Step Process
Step 1 - Open the Slice App
- Download it from Google Play Store or Apple App Store if you haven't already, or open the existing app where your savings account is linked.
Step 2 - Look for the Credit Card / UPI Credit Card option
- Inside the app, navigate to the "Cards" or "Credit" section on the home screen or the bottom navigation bar.
- You should see a prompt like "Get your Slice card" or "Unlock credit".
Step 3 - Verify your eligibility using your Savings Account
- The app will check your savings account balance and transaction history to assign a credit limit.
- You may be asked to maintain a minimum balance or link your savings balance as collateral for the credit limit. This is Slice's way of giving credit to users with no or thin credit history.
Step 4 - Complete KYC (if not already done)
- Provide your PAN card number
- Provide your Aadhaar number for e-KYC verification
- Allow the app permissions (camera for selfie/KYC, SMS for income verification)
Step 5 - Accept the Credit Limit Offer
- Slice will show you an approved credit limit (can range from ₹2,000 to ₹10,00,000 depending on your profile).
- Review and accept the offer.
Step 6 - Get your Virtual Card instantly
- A virtual Visa card is activated immediately for online shopping and UPI payments.
- You can use it on UPI apps too (it works as a UPI-linked credit card).
Step 7 - Receive Physical Card
- The physical card is mailed to your registered address within 5-7 working days.
Things to Keep in Mind
| Point | Detail |
|---|
| Joining Fee | Nil - completely free |
| Annual Fee | Nil - lifetime free |
| Cashback | Up to 3% on UPI spends, 2% on all other spends |
| Late Payment | ₹50/day if you miss the due date - avoid this |
| Interest Rate | Up to 36% per annum if you carry a balance - always pay in full |
| Credit Limit | Based on your savings account balance and activity |
If You're Not Getting the Option in the App
- Make sure your savings account KYC is fully complete (not partial).
- Keep some balance in your savings account - a higher balance signals better eligibility.
- Do a few transactions through the account to show activity.
- Contact Slice support directly via the app's Help / Chat option and tell them you want to upgrade to the credit card using your savings account.
Quick Tips for Approval
- Keep your savings account active - make at least a few transactions per month.
- Maintain a reasonable balance - even ₹5,000-10,000 helps.
- Don't apply repeatedly - one application is enough; wait for their decision.
- If rejected initially, build 1-2 months of account activity and try again.
The whole process is 100% digital and usually takes less than 10 minutes. Good luck!
