SalarySe Partners with City Union Bank to Launch India’s First Credit Card for Salaried Employees; Offers 37.5% Salary Day Bonus Reward Feature
December 8, 2025: SalarySe, India’s leading salary-powered financial wellbeing platform, has partnered with City Union Bank to launch the Level Up Credit Card, the country’s first credit card built exclusively for salaried professionals and enabled by Credit on UPI. Designed to align with the Reserve Bank of India’s push for a cashless economy, the card rewards everyday transactions—from UPI payments and online spends to monthly essentials and in-store purchases.
A key highlight is India’s first “Salary Day Bonus”, offering up to 37.5% rewards on salary disbursement days, allowing users to maximise returns on essential spending that aligns with their monthly pay cycle. With employer-linked payroll verification, the card ensures disciplined and seamless access to credit within the UPI ecosystem—unlike traditional cards that reward only select categories.
