Axis Airtel Cashback issue

[raghumahajan]

I was checking and calculating cashback per transaction on Airtel Axis Cashback.
few differences I found out:

1. Airtel Recharge market as "Utilities" and given 10% cashback sometimes
2. Zomato merchant (2 - different transactions), one is marked "Food Products" and the other "Restaurants", the second one is given 1% cashback.

What should be the solution to this?

I have multiple utility bills to pay which exceed Rs 2500 most months. With a utility capping of 250 per statement, is applying another card for my spouse considering fees beneficial? Or suggest any other cards.
Note - I have Tata Neu too.

Did you find the error in statement or in Airtel app under "utilities"??

It happens mostly in every other statement. You have to raise the issue on twitter with Axis bank support. they will ask you to send transaction details and then in next month's statement they credit the difference of cashback.

About other cards, you can consider SBI Cashback or HDFC Millennia. Buy APay GV with these cards from Amazon and pay utility bills on Amazon.

After doing the transaction in Airtel app, make sure that airtel product recharge/bill payment mapped under "recharges and bills" and other recharge/bill payment under "utilities".

I have these too. But 10% and 25% is more. That's why I asked, is it really worth applying same second card ? I have total of 5 different electricity bills and few gas bills.

If you have more airtel recharges, then you can consider applying another airtel card for your spouse as 25% is only for Airtel Recharges. What I am doing is, I've adjusted my airtel numbers recharges like this that every month only 2 numbers need to recharge with 84 days validity, So I can manage 5-6 numbers this way with only one card. For Gas & small utility bills, you can get Free Rupay platinum DC of different banks which gives 20% upto 100 on Amazon. Though its upto 31st march but hopefully they will extend it.
