Best way to achieve monthly 1000 bonus MR points on AMEX MRCC

[srichaitanya]

Can anyone tell me the best way to achieve monthly 1000 bonus MR points by doing 4 transactions of Rs. 1500 on AMEX MRCC

Any suggestions to add money to paytm wallet/ amazon pay / buy gift vouchers?

Load 4500(1500*3) via Paytm and use it at places where Amex cards are not accepted. Use the remaining 1500 to get gift card. Use that for paying Phone or Broadband bill via Amazon.

i mainly use the funds to buy medicines from 1mg,netmeds,pharmeasy,apollo etc.Does paytm charge extra for wallet load ?

Load using Uber. You won't get any charges. Get a supplementary card on your name as well and use it to load money on another Paytm account. Or else, directly use your card to Pay for NPS. You'll get the milestone benefits though you won't get normal MR points.

2 things on above method...you'll pay min 3-4% charges to load money to paytm via amex cards....plus you'll end up paying 50% fees if you dont spend 90k....so do you calc and close if feasible

Load 4500(1500*3) via Paytm and use it at places where Amex cards are not accepted. Or use that Paytm balance to pay bill of any other CC. Use the remaining 1500 to get gift card. Use that for paying Phone or Broadband bill via Amazon.

Paytm allows only 4k loads.
2x Paytm
1x mobikwik
1x Amazon GV

Yes 1500x4 is the optimal way to do. You will get a total of 1240 points this way.

Yes, AMEX Gyftr is very helpful for the 1.5K X4 transaction milestone achievement after the Paytm-Uber,Zomato route is used up.

Yes

Amex has a separate Gyftr portal. Gives 2X MR points on MRCC

To load the PayTM wallet via Amex MRCC, we have to pay 39.75 INR, almost 2.75%. What is the point of it? Any alternative?

Loading via Uber/Zomato to Paytm seems to be patched. 🙁

My Plat travel card got approved recently. I was wondering if these wallet load tricks still work or not. Paytm charges 2.348% for wallet loads for me. Never tried mobikwik, don't know if I'll be able to use the wallet balance of mobikwik. I was buying swiggy vouchers for my DCB up until now and Amazon Pay vouchers for utility & insurance payments.

I will target for the trifecta - plat travel (approved in my wife's name), will refer myself for gold & mrcc.

Let me know how I can maximize my returns from these cards in current scenario where most of the loop holes are being closed.

Thanks a lot for your comments and sharing your knowledge with everyone else!

Paytm zomato tick doesnt work now for Amex as they have started levying wallet loading fees!
Mobikwik I personally havent paid charges to load to wallet till 10K per month.. But while withdrawing to bank they charge 40rs/1000rs and if you want to use wallet balance for credit card bill payment then they charge around 30rs/1000rs.
