New Delhi, Oct 8 (TIWN) People looking forward to watching their favourite shows on OTT platforms such as Netflix, Amazon and others would not face any disruption in service over non-payment or delayed payment of subscription fee owing to new payment security feature made mandatory by the Reserve bank of India from this month.

As part of measures to secure recurring transactions made by customers using their cards, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has mandated new auto-debit rules that have kicked in from October 1. The apex banks directive states that there will be no automatic recurring payment for various services including utility bills, recharge of phone, DTH, and OTT, among others as the additional factor of authentication (AFA) will become mandatory.
