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.

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.

I never said that you're lying its just that I didn't get points so was just confirming with all....
👀 Waiting.. ..
I think you should’ve avoided PayZapp and used Airtel for 100% sure safe bet, unless….you wanted to prove your points to “someone” !! 🤪
Anyways, keep us updated here about the points!!
Paid for my Infinia 45k using indusind exclusive MC DC using Payzapp..
Current RP = 15 points

Two transactions
25k and 20k..let's see what happens...

So have you got the points credited?

This is for those who are intersted in ( and also for some serious doubters ) ...

Received the reward points for my 45K ( 20K+25K) transactions done in Payzapp using IndusInd Exclusive MC DC on Monday and recieved them on Firday.. I had always got the points using this method for the last 6 months or so...

Enjoy....

Following observations can be made from our combined experiences regarding Indus MC DC on Payzapp :

1. Select MC DC is not giving points on Payzapp but Exclusive DC is (I too received points for Exclusive DC but not for Select DC)
2. There is a possibility that high value txn. are not giving points (I didn't get points for two 50k+ txns but received for <20k txns.)

Feel free to offer your views...

Note: These are just observation & not conclusions !!

My txns were 20-40k/txn....
 
Should I raise a complaint then?
Or forget about it? 🙃
