HDFC Bank PIXEL Credit Card - Query & Discussion

[ekarthikv]

I have physical pixel visa card and virtual pixel rupay card, the rewards points of these cards shared or seperate? Anyone know

Not related but I find it very fasinating that Payzapp first put the Zapp account only to then put it back as payzapp wallet changing the UI and then reverting it back.

Atleast the tap and pay offer still works. If its extended further it may even make me lose interest in getting the Kiwi card 😛

I raised it to grivance team and after a long wait they said that they updated the tap and pay offer but they made the exception that they will credit the remaining 4% within 7 days.

So far I got two transactions credited with the 4%



Best way to max that amount is to get the amazon gift balance of 10k if you use Amazon a lot. You easily cap the 500. I'm going to change the 3% to Amazon and see if the 8% works when geting vouchers on both Smartbuy and Amazon directly.

Did you get 8% or 5%?

I have to change the amazon e-commerce at the end of next month. Until then I can only get 5%.

Yes it's combined only. Even in cibil it will show up as one only.

You can now add Pixel cards on third party apps like Gpay, Phonepe, Paytm etc to pay pixel play /go credit card bills.

Look for the pixel title like this

I got good news for Pixel card holders!

The 5% CB and the 3% CB works for Amazon.

If you get an amazon gift voucher from smart buy you get 5% CB. If you select amazon as the ecommerce and buy a gift card on Amazon you get the 3% CB. I tested this and it works.

The other one regarding gold rewards i don't know how to get it to work
Because amazon UPI doesn't let me use my Pixel Play Rupay variant. If there is a way to do it then technically you get 5% CB on Amazon and 3% CB from the pixel play card.

Basically you're getting combined of 8% CB either way.

Also another good news the tap and pay offer is extended for August as well!

Isn't it exciting? We got a worthy competitor of Kiwi and no devaluation of sorts as of this post.

But buying Amazon Gv from Smartbuy, we also pay Processing fees

And you're paying Amazon for platform and convenience fees if you stick with Amazon.

Yes...paying 3.5% + GST to get 5% cashback.
IMO It's a very BAD MOVE

 

[Joltpost]

Its incredible how most of you like to avoid paying any fees in general. Most people either just put up with it or move elsewhere.

Note: Pixel doesn't give 10% cashback for PharmEasy purchase on SmartBuy.

You get 5% first on Smartbuy. Later on the remaining 5% gets credited back.

This is what their terms say.

Nope.
I have order medicine from PharmEasy, 5% credited within 3 days but remaining 5% not credited even after 90 days. So, I contacted their support team and they say pixel is only eligible for 5% cashback.

Then report it to the grievance team. On the terms they said that the remaining CB is credited within 90 days for other HDFC credit cards.

From Pixel CC TnC

No two programs can be combined or benefits of two programs are combined at any point in time, for transactions done on the SmartBuy website or pages thereof, associated with the program.

You will only receive one cashback on smartbuy.

Did you get 10% cashback for PharmEasy transaction on SmartBuy through Pixel ?

I have not done so yet.

You will only receive one cashback on smartbuy.

In the first point it mentions this.

All other existing SmartBuy Terms and conditions will be
applicable.

Not sure about it but at the same time if it says existing smartbuy terms and conditions will be applicable then it should also apply.

Again you can ask grievance to confirm this.
