The SC Smart MITC clearly mentions that a minimum cashback of ₹1000 is needed for redemption and above ₹1000, the redemption can be done on increments of ₹500.

But, I opened the 360 rewards portal just now and there it says minimum ₹2500 cashback is needed for redemption. What's with the discrepancy? Has anyone else faced this?

That makes the card kinda useless. Need to spend 1.25L to be able to redeem it.

They should, at least, have the decency to update their MITC. Anyway, time to close it.

Anyway you need to spend 1.2L for annual fees waiver. So use it only for online transactions and take home the ₹2500 cashback (on spending 1.25L online)

Yes, I took this card specially for two insurance payments of ~50k I make every year. For that amount, this card has a better return than Neu Infinity, so I thought I'll load my amazon/Payzapp wallet for the remainder for annual fee waiver.

But even that isn't as useful cuz amazon charges 2.36% on wallet loads. So, Payzapp is the only somewhat useful wallet that isn't currently charging any fees. Although, even that has a caveat as you can't pay CC bills with the wallet balance.

Let's see if I can find a good use for Payzapp balance or else I'll close the card.

@avikrish was asking about validity of cashback points. I have SC smart and I could not find any mention of cashback point expiry in the MITC or any other documentation related to SC Smart.
About reward points expiry, I don’t know. Maybe as you mentioned in the link from cardinsider

Guys, any idea if SC makes exception and reverses annual fee in case you are not able to meet 1.2L spend.

I have made around 50k till now and renewal is due soon. Kindly suggest feasible options to spend the remaining amount considering the recent devaluations.

TIA.
