Both can be held together and free of charge with select or exclusive accounts. Use paytm or SBI Unipay for visa. Sbi unipay or Payzapp for mastercard variant. Do note, these dc have incremental rewards, so if spend is 10k only <0.5% rewards.
For mc world and visa signature each : Cashback limit is Rs 1050 per month on spends of 112k. Max 3000 reward points at 35 paise.
*Visa Platinum card has been devalued w.e.f November, so removed from above.

Reward rate and dc fees depends on account type:
For wealth account: 0.67% rewards till 50k(online spends). 2.5% rewards post 50k. Rs.12.5k rewards max monthly. So, around Rs.5.36L transaction can be done.
For Select account: 0.5% rewards till 50k(online spends). 2.5% rewards post 50k. Rs.7.5k rewards max monthly. So, around Rs.3.4L transactions can be done.
For basic account: 0.33% rewards till 50k(online spends). 1.67% rewards post 50k. Rs.2k rewards max monthly. So, around Rs.1.6L transactions can be done.

7) Axis Liberty dc: Pay using sbi unipay. For 60k spends in a calendar qtr, get 750 cashback. Bonus tip: spend 10k on gift edge/Amazon (incl gift voucher)/ FK during weekend and get 500Rs reward pm. Dc fees apply.

8) Other dc: Sbi physical dc 0.25% on all except account to wallet/account to account. Jupiter (1% upto Rs150 on sbi unipay; 2% using upi for select accounts). Union bank signature 1% unlimited. Standard Chartered Infinite Priority 1.25% unlimited vouchers on wallet/utility etc.

Alternative to SBI unipay: ‘Airtel’ (2 merchant names, both work), Canara bbps/setu website (https://billpe.setu.co/1449602066912642206) , Navi app. They only support bbps cc bill payment. These give 4900 (utility) mcc.

Ongoing issues
(1) For Non-BBPS CC billers (like Amex or SC), you cannot use SBI Unipay and most other apps. You can load Amazon wallet or payzapp wallet using debit cards which give points on Wallet load (like HDFC Millenia) and pay using the bill desk website. Alternatively, you can use cc issuer NEFT/UPI details as well.
Amex: https://www.americanexpress.com/in/...-statements-and-balance/making-a-payment.html
SC: https://www.sc.com/in/credit-cards/payment-option/

(2) HDFC Billpay service has changed it's MCC, so avoid using that. Use Unipay instead.
(3) Indus dc points are not regular, so will have to wait and still no guarantee that you will get the points or correct number of points.
(4): Some have reported idfc dc is blocked while account is active. You can complaint to idfc, it gets solved in 3-5 days.
(5) SBI Unipay does not allow to pay SBI CC bill when you are logged in for some users. So, dont login and you will be able to pay SBI CC bill.

That 5% unlimited CB was only for salary account holders right ? and that too only till 30th June or 31st July.
I remember once i paid bill of over 1 lakh from cred via HSBC dc and it gave me 5% cb.

Ahh i see, on the website for salary holders it mentions this
View attachment 71826

but on the other hand on this url : cashback-link
it states the offer valid till 31st jan 2025, but seems this offer is not exclusive for salary account holders, not sure if these 2 are different offers.

Just checked with HSBC premier phone banking and my RM - both say that the offer has been extended till Jan 2025 and is only for corporate salary account. Also confirmed that cashback will credited within T+ 60 days.

That's great, even I have Salary account since i work in Hsbc Software, but the posting time is too much to check if we get the cashback or not via SBI unipay.
It worked for me once upon a time when cred gave me a option for a DC since the bill amount was more than 1 lakh.
But since even HSBC recently excluded a lot of categories I assume cred will not work anymore but SBI unipay should.
Do let me know if you get the 5% cashback via the sbi unipay or some other route, you paid via airtel thanks app right ?
Do you know if there is an upper limit on the cashback ? AFAIK there is no upper capping.

Yes, i paid via airtel app. The merchant name in hsbc sms shows as ‘Bharti Airtel Ltd’. There is no limit on cashback. When I asked HSBC phone banking agent, she said it will fetch 5% cashback looking at the name of the merchant but still asked me to wait and check.
