Features of IPPB account

The India Post Payments Bank (IPPB) was established under the Department of Post, Ministry of Communication, with the government of India owning 100% of the equity. Via a channel of 650 IPPB branches/controlling offices that operate on a core model, IPPB has extended its reach across India, covering post offices. Regular savings account, digital savings account, and basic savings account are the three forms of savings accounts offered by IPPB. The three forms of savings accounts have a fixed interest rate of 4% per year. The below are the most important information regarding the IPPB's Digital Savings Account:

  • If you currently have an IPPB savings account with a KYC (know your customer) you can create an account on the app using your PAN, Aadhaar, and registered mobile number. It's important to note that there is a huge difference between an IPPB savings account and a post office savings bank (POSB) account.
  • Failure to complete the KYC procedure within 12 months would result in the account being close. According to IBBP's website, ippbonline.com, KYC procedure must be completed at any of the access points or with the assistance of the GDS/postman (Gramin Dak Sevaks), following which the Digital Savings Account can be converted to a Regular Savings Account.
  • After creating an IPPB account, you can use the app to transfer funds to your post office schemes, such as RD, PPF, and SSY. Under these schemes, the app only allows for transfers, not account creation.
  • You can also transfer funds from your POSB account to the IPPB account.
  • Select the scheme shown under the 'post office services' section of the app to transfer to the corresponding post office schemes. The app will inquire for the account number of the scheme you're invested in as well as your post office customer ID. After each effective money transfer, the IPPB app will issue a notification.
  • Customers of post offices are also to lend against some schemes, such as RD and PPF, subject to some restrictions. In the case of loans taken out against your deposit, the IPPB app allows you to make loan repayments.
