Did multiple transactions on 21/08 and got the points on 22/08 but the points don't match with the calculations🤔
Can anyone send me the exact value or reward rate at which we earn points
Here you go.. The earn rate is different for each variant of debit card.. you get base rewards based on variant multiplier and (11-variant X) bonus points for spends after the threshold limit applicable for each variant...

Showing an example for wealth variant... for 2L spends..
Base reward points = 200000/150*4 = 5333
Bonus reward points = (200000-150000)/150*(11-4) = 2333

Confirmed the calculations for wealth variant based on my last two month spends... people who have used can confirm for other variants…
For strange reasons base variants are more rewarding than higher variants till 6 L spends... after 6L spends the hierarchy is maintained for reward structure !

Also the system has few flaws.. if multiple transactions are done on same day only one of them get points at times.. after mailing customer care they credit the remaining..

I think this gentleman has done some serious hardwork here by including pics and transactions/ cashback screenshots. Also you have beautifully explained in detail.👏👏

Moreover this post looks much more neat and clean.
