Best way to reach 75k milestone in 90 days for SBI Vistara prime

[faltooAdmi]

Hi folks,

Recently got SBI Vistara prime card.
It says I need to spend 75k+ in 1st 90 days to get 3k vistara points.

How should I plan my finances to achieve this :
I have HDFC DCB and SBI Vistara Prime.

I have following fixed expenses :

Rent : 23000
Internet + Electricity : 2000
Society Maintenance : 3500

Should I pay my rent & society maintenance through SBI prime ?
Also what about wallet loads ?

paying rent and society maintenance will definitely help, as you'll directly spend 25k+ in a month, so for 90 days you can easily reach 75k using that.

I might also get this card. Wish to know if Rent payments are counted towards milestone benefits.

You will get points on NPS. Also you will get points of wallet load using Paytm only when gateway does not show Paytm Wallet though all the wallet loads will get counted towards milestone benefits. Also, you will get points on Rent Payment as well.

Hi WW, I have recently discovered this forum while searching for these particular use cases. I wish to know whether direct payment via card on redgirraffe would yield CV and milestone benefits both, or if there is a catch and workaround needed. Any insights would be useful!

I have never tried rent payments with SBI Card(in fact any CC), but in their T&C document, the only exclusions they have mentioned is Wallet Loads and EMI.

Is there any dashboard where we can see how much more we need to spend to reach the next milestone ?

The spend analyzer on their site when selected for the data range shows how much you spend this year. This way you will know how close you are to the next milestone. No sort of countdown for milestone like Amex I have noticed for SBI Vistara.
