Buy from smartbuy if you want 5% surety. There's some 1.5% charge on it. I've did utilities and gc purchases from amzn and have always received 5% Last i did was march and have received 5% points this week. But can't argue if they give 1% as per terms. I have no idea if smartbuy purchases count for spend based offer you've received. Technically it should.

And yes the mrc shows amazon mumbai in the statement. Buying from smartbuy will reduce the reward rate by 1.5% but since you are getting extra voucher it seems the way to do it. I won't ever do 20k gv purchases from Amazon directly as theres no guarantee I'll get 5%. I only buy gv for small utilities and recharges for which i already have apayicici which gives 2% but 1% risk i take hoping for extra 4%. The risks i think i can take. Shopping is promised 5% so theres no need to buy gv for it.

Yes. Vouchers and utilities both gave 5%. Have been silently getting 5% without making much noise. I only came to know when I did a recharge and got 5%. After that I've did all my amazon bills with it. I don't even check merchant names/codes and stuff. Once it mentioned utilities so switched to gv but the statements have always shown "amazon mumbai". Also i dont abuse gv purchases, I've heard amazon flags your account if done too many gv purchases. I just pay bills, shop sometimes. Never spent large amounts though. Some 3-4k average.
