Adding a Payee in Vyom App: A Detailed Guide
This section will guide you through the entire process of adding a payee in the Vyom App. Follow each step carefully to ensure a smooth and successful experience.
How To Add Payee In Vyom App |
Step 1: Launching the Vyom App and Navigating to the Payee Section
This is where your journey begins!
1.1: Opening the Application
First and foremost, locate the Vyom App icon on your smartphone or tablet. It usually has a distinctive logo associated with the Vyom service provider. Tap on the icon to launch the application.
1.2: Logging into Your Account
Once the app is open, you will be prompted to enter your login credentials. This typically includes your User ID or registered mobile number and your Password. Ensure you enter these details correctly. Some apps might also offer biometric authentication (fingerprint or facial recognition) as an alternative login method. If available and set up, you can use that for a quicker login.
1.3: Locating the "Manage Payees" or Similar Section
After successfully logging in, you need to find the section dedicated to managing payees. This section might be labeled differently depending on the app's interface, but common names include:
- Manage Payees
- Beneficiaries
- Add/Edit Payee
- Payee Management
Look for these options in the main menu, dashboard, or within the "Funds Transfer" or "Payments" section of the app. It's often represented by an icon that might resemble a list of users or a plus (+) symbol next to a user icon. Tap on the relevant option to proceed.
Step 2: Initiating the Payee Addition Process
Now that you're in the right section, let's add a new payee.

2.1: Selecting the "Add New Payee" Option
Within the "Manage Payees" or similar section, you will usually find a button or link to add a new payee. This might be labeled as:
- Add New Payee
- + Add Beneficiary
- Add Payee
- New Payee
Look for a plus (+) symbol as well, as it often indicates the addition of a new item. Tap on this option to start filling in the payee's details.
2.2: Choosing the Payee Type (if applicable)
Some apps might allow you to add different types of payees, such as bank accounts within the same bank or accounts in other banks. You might be asked to select the type of payee you are adding. Choose the option that corresponds to the type of account you want to add.
Step 3: Entering the Payee's Account Details
This is a crucial step where accuracy is paramount. Double-check all the information you enter.
3.1: Payee's Name
Enter the full name of the person or entity you want to add as a payee, exactly as it appears in their bank account records. Any discrepancies in the name might lead to failed transactions.
3.2: Payee's Account Number
Carefully enter the bank account number of the payee. This is a unique identifier for their account. Ensure you have the correct number and verify it with the payee if possible. Mistakes in the account number are a common cause of failed transfers.
3.3: Bank Name
Select the name of the bank where the payee holds the account. Most apps provide a dropdown list or a search bar to help you find the correct bank.
3.4: IFSC Code (Indian Financial System Code)
This is a unique 11-character alphanumeric code that identifies a specific bank branch in India. Enter the correct IFSC code of the payee's bank branch. You can usually find this information on the payee's chequebook, bank statement, or by searching online (ensure the source is reliable). An incorrect IFSC code will likely result in the transaction not being processed correctly.

3.5: Account Type (Optional but sometimes required)
Some banks might require you to specify the type of account the payee holds, such as Savings Account, Current Account, etc. If prompted, select the appropriate option.
Step 4: Reviewing and Confirming the Payee Details
Before finalizing, take a moment to review all the information you have entered.
4.1: Double-Checking All Entries
Carefully go through each field – Payee's Name, Account Number, Bank Name, and IFSC Code (and Account Type if applicable). Ensure there are no typos or errors.
4.2: Submitting the Payee Addition Request
Once you are confident that all the details are correct, click on the "Submit," "Add," or "Confirm" button. This will send a request to the Vyom App system to add the payee to your list.
Step 5: Verification and Activation (If Required)
For security reasons, many apps implement a verification process before a new payee is fully activated.
5.1: Receiving a Verification OTP (One-Time Password)
You might receive an OTP on your registered mobile number or email address. This is a security measure to ensure that you are the one adding the payee.
5.2: Entering the OTP
Enter the OTP you received in the designated field within the app. Ensure you enter it correctly and within the specified timeframe.
5.3: Completing the Verification Process
After entering the OTP, click on "Verify," "Submit OTP," or a similar button to complete the verification process.

5.4: Activation Timeframe
In some cases, there might be a cooling period before the newly added payee is fully activated for transactions. This is another security measure. You might receive a notification once the payee is activated, or you might need to wait for a specified duration (e.g., a few hours or a day) before you can initiate a transfer to this payee.
Step 6: Successful Payee Addition
Once the verification (if any) is successful and the activation period (if any) is over, the payee will be successfully added to your list of beneficiaries. You will usually receive a confirmation message within the app.
6.1: Viewing the Added Payee
You should now be able to see the newly added payee in your "Manage Payees" or "Beneficiaries" list.
6.2: Initiating Transactions
You can now initiate fund transfers to this payee whenever you need to. Simply select the payee from your list during the fund transfer process.
