Don't have either card. Have DCB and Magnus.
I am getting 5K Discount on SBI and another 5K cashback on UPI card.
I am considering to spend on Amex Plat travel just because of hitting the 4L Milestone and this E-voucher offer.

Then use plain Magnus for 12% return
it's better than Amex Platinum 5.5% return

48000 points will get you maximum two room nights in a cheaper Marriott hotel, while 10000 voucher will not even get you one room night in Taj

How 5.5%? On Spending 1.5L on reward multiplyer I will receive 9K MR Points + 20K Bonus MR for 4L Milestone + 9K E-Voucher.

That is almost 23.5K.
Hence 15.67% Return.

Am I missing something?

You will get 48000 points on 4 lakhs.
48000 points are worth less than Rs.19200.
10000 Taj voucher will not get even one room night in Taj.
it is worth Rs. 6000 at the most.
Try to sell it, you will not get any buyers willing to pay more than 6000

he is talking about double dipping both the offers

This video claims 5 nights in Marriott with Amex points.
Completely wrong valuation of the points

He didn't mention how much points he burnt. Also 5 nights in Marriott with Amex points is possible at Maldives too. Just need to have 2.35L MR points

How did you calculate 19.2k for 48k points?

I guess he has considered value of 0.4/MR point.

You are very lucky
there are people who could not use it and worried about expiry

I don't think so. There are many buyers willing to buy at 7K. You just need to trade it at right time and you'll get best value when the expiry is far away.

For dining and spa expense Taj vouchers make sense but for stays if u get it even at 30% off , nothing great as even Neu app offers 25% off on Best Available Rate .

I don't know bro. Only the buyer knows exactly how he's going to use it. But overall I see voucher with 9-10 months expiry can be sold at 7K.
