Lol , should I also ask idfc through email for These Bank Courtesy Points ? I didn't get any
it's not courtsey points . just simple bonus points which u get on incremental spends after 20k . Reward rate will be around 1.7% on bonus awards above 20k in a month . On top of that 2% CB upto 500 also. IDFC has gone bonkers though. I have received rewards almost next day in month of September but for month of August they haven't credited yet !!

It's not even payu for me now, now it literally says "Merchant" xD. Just when I thought I would reliably get points, another variable in the mix and another 2-7 day wait to confirm how this "Merchant" txn gets points.
 
MCC - 7399 is BUSINESS SERVICES (NEC)

IDFC and RBL Signature+ debit card pe toh milega.
Thanks for the info. When was the most recent time someone confirmed they got idfc rewards on "Merchant"? If it's recently then I'll make some high value txns I was waiting for self confirmation on.
