Yes Bank Reserv + 3X Subscription Plan

Apply For Lifetime Free IDFC First Credit Card

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a new card to complement my Infinia. The main goal is to increase the rewards rate for a few lakhs of donations towards NGOs (both Indian and International). BOGO on movies, and rewards on rental and UPI transactions will be great to have but not necessary.

I recently came across the YES Reserv card, along with the 3X subscription offer for all spends. The following is how I see the reward rates:
  • 9% Points on Online Shopping (except on Select categories)**
  • 4.5% Points on Offline Shopping (except on Select categories)
  • 2.25% Points on Select categories
Assuming 25 paise per RP redemption rate, for flights and hotels.

The 9% rewards rate seems just too good to be true. Can anyone confirm? If it is indeed true, then why is this not the most talked about card for Forex transactions?

P.S: I don't mind paying the annual fee given the rewards.

Yes Reserv Card.

I haven't made any transactions with the card yet, my initial attempt was on Payzapp for ₹200 to activate the card, which resulted in the error I mentioned. After that, I tried various merchants, all of which returned the same error.

I've filed a complaint with the RBI Ombudsman and will update how it goes.

Yes please let us know. This sounds concerning. Did you try block and replace card, so card number changes - and hopefully that might work?

This is really weird error - Is anyone facing similar issue for either Yes Reserv card or Yes Marquee card as well? Just wanted to check if it's a widespread issue and not some one off issue.

Woah is there any such portal, which gives accelerated points for GVs for Yes Bank cards? This would be amazing, even I'd be curious to know. @helloworld @squarepizza

fyi: 3x is subscription plan.. need to activate and get every puchase gives 3x points.

amzn itself works or anywhere, there is no exclusion. do not compare sbi cashback rules with other cards, no other card restricting reward points for voucher puchase.

Ohh I'm aware of the 3x subscription plan. I thought there would be 3x multiplier on top of the 3x plan for GVs, maybe a Gyftr portal that most banks have! 😅

we have dedicated gyftr portal for yes bank too and earlier we do get 10x rewards but it got stopped, now like most of the other banks its just either direct discount only.

except: HDFC, AXIS, AMEX, Indus, AU - other banks IIRC not providing accelarated rewards.

@helloworld , It seems the RBI Ombudsman has resolved my issue. I received a response from Yes Bank's Principal Nodal team confirming that my card is now active. I've tested it by making transactions, and I can confirm that it's working smoothly now.

So does Reserv 3x still give 2.25% return on income tax and property tax?
is this the highest in the market?

Have you received 5xrewards on these transactions, if no then generally when they will credit these additional points

I have 3x subscription but i guess same is followed with 5x too.

Ussally we would get messgae near 11th of the month that your 3x points are credited. But if u check your rp amount it will still show the same. I have seen it actually reflecting when you recieve the message that your statement is generated. Note: after message they take 24 hrs to actually show the statement but as soon as u get the message that statement has been generated and will be delivered in 24-48 hrs is when u should be able to see the new rp in the app
