SBI UPI Payments: State Bank of India, the country's largest public sector bank, has introduced a new feature for its customers. With the latest version of the YONO digital banking app, both SBI and non-SBI customers can now make Unified Payment Interface (UPI) payments hassle-free. This means you don't need an account with SBI to enjoy the convenience of UPI payments through YONO.
