So, Your LIC Premium is Due... Again? Brace Yourself for a Comedy of Errors (and Payments)
Ah, the annual LIC premium dance. That delightful pirouette of dread and responsibility, where your bank account pirouettes away from you faster than a ballerina on Red Bull. Fear not, fellow procrastinators and financial contortionists, for I bring tidings of joy! Joy in the form of plastic: yes, we're talking about paying your LIC premium using a credit card!
Hold on, hold on, you cry, clutching your tattered wallet like a life raft. "Isn't that financial suicide? Won't I be paying for this policy until the dinosaurs come back?"
Relax, grasshopper. While yes, there might be a small processing fee (think of it as a tiny toll on the road to financial redemption), it's a far cry from digging yourself into a debt crater. Plus, think of the benefits:
Tip: Reread slowly for better memory.![]()
- No more scrambling for cash: You can be chilling in your PJs, scrolling through cat videos, and still pay your premium like a responsible adult (at least on paper).
- Rewards, oh sweet rewards: Some credit cards offer reward points on bill payments. So, basically, you're getting paid to be responsible. Now that's what I call adulting with sprinkles!
- Build that credit score: Regular, on-time payments with your credit card are like little pats on the back for your financial future. Soon, you'll be applying for mortgages while singing karaoke in a Ferrari (figuratively speaking, of course).
Now, let's get down to the nitty-gritty:

| How To Pay Lic Premium Using Credit Card |
Option 1: The LIC Website Adventure
- Gear up: Dig out your policy number, date of birth, and a prayer to the internet gods.
- Navigate the LIC website: This is like spelunking in a digital jungle. Be prepared for pop-ups, broken links, and the occasional existential crisis.
- Find the "Pay Premium" portal: It's probably hidden behind a waterfall guarded by a riddle-speaking sphinx. But persevere, brave adventurer!
- Enter your details: Type slowly, double-check everything, and maybe offer a small sacrifice to the credit card gods for good measure.
- Voila! Payment success (hopefully): Bask in the warm glow of financial accomplishment. Then immediately forget about it and go back to scrolling through cat videos.

Option 2: The Bank Website Waltz
- Log in to your bank's website: Remember that password you haven't changed since dial-up internet was a thing? It's time to dust it off.
- Find the "Bill Pay" section: This is where the magic happens. Think of it as your financial fairy godmother, except slightly less sparkly and with a suspicious number of spreadsheets.
- Add LIC as a biller: Enter your policy number and other details. Feel free to channel your inner accountant and double-check everything twice.
- Schedule your payment: Choose the date you want to pay (ideally, the day your paycheck hits). Now, you can relax and pretend you're actually in control of your finances.
Bonus Tip: Set up auto-pay! This is like putting your financial future on autopilot. You'll never miss a payment again, and you can bask in the smug satisfaction of being a responsible adult (even if you still wear mismatched socks).
