Introducing Mobile Prepaid Recharge on Jupiter 📱

Hello everyone!

Greetings from the Jupiter Bill Payments team :wave:

You heard that right! Mobile Prepaid Recharges are now on Jupiter!
We have given early access to our Community members so that they can try it out first. :slight_smile:


What is Bill Payment and why on Jupiter?

Jupiter just makes it more seamless. We have added the most awaited category Mobile Prepaid recharges in the Recharge section on Bill Payments.

@AbhishekSaraswat Welcome to the Community Sir :+1: and Thanks for introducing this much-awaited feature. :cool_doge: :cool_doge:

I mainly use Simpl PayLater for recharges, and the reminder feature about the expiry of the validity of the current plan (for others also, if we have recharged for family members or friends) is the one Jupiter needs to consider if it is not there.

I have tried out the recharge functionality, works very well.
However I had a different question about paying Postpaid broadband connection bills. There is no Jiofiber biller to pay bills for, I am not sure if its Jio not integrating with BBPS or something else. Can you please check this.
Thanks in advance :blob_thanks:

I use Amazon Pay or Cred as they provide reminders as well as cashbacks.

I am using the latest version of the Jupiter app (2.0.19), but unfortunately, I haven’t been able to get the feature yet.:frowning:

No way…:thinking: Since you are an active community member, you should definitely have to get that feature live.
Did you checked those steps (Pay Bills Tab)?

It was a much awaited feature on Jupiter @AbhishekSaraswat …It would also be cool if we can provide cashbacks for all recharge options :heart_eyes:

I did check but it’s not there :neutral_face:

I saw Jio Plans. The categories should be displayed correctly. You can copy the same as provided in the Myjio app. Users won’t feel much friction then.
For example, i usually recharge with value plan of 84 days, but i am unable to find that plan on Jupiter.

If possible, try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. There is no chance that the feature is not yet made available to you.

You do not fall under these two categories, so it has to be there somehow. :eyebrow: :eyebrow:

Also, I initially didn’t get the access to the new account statement feature that was released last week, while other community members already got that. However, I got the access only after connect with the team.

I really appreciate the search function with the days option available in the recharge section. It was my first time seeing this feature. Although I also use Simpl Paylater and Google Pay for recharges, they do have a search option, but not with the days filter. Even in Google Pay, searching for 28 days results in many unsorted results. However, Jupiter’s implementation is spot on. :+1: :+1:

Disliked: The contact syncing is somewhat slow and takes around 3-4 seconds to display all contacts (1994 saved contacts, may be that’s the issue :eyebrow:).

@saurabh.s This Seems to be an access issue. Since you’re an older member on the forum, we’ll check. :mag:

Hey Devansh, just checking which plan are you referring to. I am seeing two 84 days plan in the prime combo pack section.

@AbhishekSaraswat Here are my observations -

  1. The section is placed prominently in the bill payment section which is good. Very happy that the provider names are getting detected with accuracy. Tested it with 5 different numbers & every time the provider was correct. While there is some difference in the placement of recharge packs under different categories, I was able to find the recharge packs that I usually recharge for. The payment experience was very seamless. Received a confirmation message from Jio instantly.
  2. I typically use Cred, Gpay with Axis Ace Card, Amazon with Amazon Pay ICICI card for cashback. This might be a bit tricky for Jupiter.
  3. I see MTNL has been included in the provider category. Are there plans to include BSNL as well as that has a bulk of users? May not be the target audience. Just stating this from a merchant availability perspective.

First give me access to my account. I’m unable to use it since I updated phone number…

Might be there, that’s why i told it would be much better if they can replicate headers from the one that is there in Myjio, it would be much better.
