Doubts regarding HDFC Millennia Credit Card

Hi, Many of you hold HDFC Millennia CC, and most of you still don't know the maximum cashback per category of this card. This post might help you in clearing many doubts you have regarding this cc. The maximum cashback as per the category is as follows: Millennia Smartbuy/Payzapp Spends (5%) - 750(Max) with a minimum transaction of 2K. Millennia Online Spends (2.5%) - 750(Max) with a minimum transaction of 2K. Millennia Offline/Wallet reload Spends (1%) - 750(Max). Smartbuy cashback (5%) - 1000(Max) Let me clear the most common doubts: 1. Buying Amazon gift vouchers from the Smartbuy Instant voucher portal(https://www.gyftr.com/instantvou...s/) will give you 10%cashback(5% will be Millennia reward points and 5% will be Smartbuy cashback). 2. Shopping on Amazon through the Smartbuy portal will also give you 10% cashback(5% will be Millennia reward points and 5% will be Smartbuy cashback). 3. Shopping directly on Amazon will give you 2.5% cashback. 4. Paying rent from NoBroker through Payzapp using this card will give you 5% Millennia reward points + Payzapp cashback. 5. Paying bills from Payzapp greater than 2K using this card will give you 5% Millennia reward points + Payzapp cashback. The rewards points are added by the first week of the next month. For the best reward point rates, you can redeem 2500 points for 2500 cash statements. Even though the reward portal says handling charges of 99, you won't be charged anything for redemption. I hope this post will be helpful to you all.

First one. Nobroker will redirect you to Payzapp. Login and then pay.

If you have not received the reward points, please mail to [email protected] with the transaction date, they will manually add the reward points and in future you will automatically get the reward points

Yes as per the T&C, but I am still getting 1000 cashback even after 6 months.

For Millennia DC it works (400 is min limit for DC), so I believe same should work for CC too.

Point No. 2, If I Buy Amazon Gift Vouchers On Amazon Through Smartbuy Portal Will I Get 10% Cashback? (5% Millennia + 5% Smartbuy)

Same Quary For Point No. 3

Critic Critic

No because smartbuy 5% does not apply to anything other than regular amazon shopping of products(aka GV/bill payments/even Fresh orders excluded).

Deal Subedar Deal Subedar

Pretty sure for point 2 you get 7.5% back (5% CB + 2.5 % RP) at least thats what I used to get

You won’t get RP as the TXN Amt is less than 2k.

Mail to [email protected] and state the transaction, they will add the rp manually.
[TIP] Send them a generic mail saying that you are not receiving 5% RP for smartbuy transactions, they will check at their end and add the RP for all the transactions for which you have not received the points, which will be higher than you are anticipating.

one last question, do we get 2% RP for insurance payments?

All points are correct and will applaud the effort given to collect together everything.

Also @guest_999 I would like to confirm any Payzapp usage other than wallet load gives extra 5% for over 2k on millennia CC. I have recently done on Bigbasket and electricity Bill payments, all CB were given @ 5%.
Hdfc millennia cc value chart might be helpful in clarifying these doubts. https://www.hdfcbank.com/content/bbp/repositori...

Most times on DD the confusion happens as either the person haven’t transacted over 2k or he has millennia debit card which is not exactly the same.

You can use Paytm Merchant account.
You can load money in MobiKwik.
You can load money in Payzapp and can use rent app to use that money.
These are some of the ways from which you can get the 1% RPs.
I am sure that there will be many more ways as well.

Can someone confirm if we get cashback for paying income tax using Millennia Debit card?
or thy consider it as Business payment and not providing any cashback on it?

Benevolent Benevolent
Link Copied

Is the 5% cashback on all payzapp transactions above 2k still true? I see current T&C says only Amazon, Flipkart, Flight and Hotel transactions. So, Nobroker rent payment will give only 2.5%? Or will it be considered wallet reload and just 1%? Even nobroker is not showing this offer now a days.

5% CashBack on Amazon, Flipkart, Flight & Hotel bookings on shopping via PayZapp and SmartBuy (minimum transaction size of ₹2000, Max ₹1000 CashBack per calendar month in first 6 months, Max ₹ 750 CashBack post 6 months from card issuance)

https://www.hdfcbank.com/personal/pay/cards/mil...

Debit card still says all payzapp transactions. So, my question is about credit card only.

Genius Genius

For Oct – Yes, 5% is still applicable.
From Nov – Not sure, whether the old T&C will be still applicable or not

Benevolent Benevolent

Someone sent me this link of New T&C.
https://www.hdfcbank.com/content/api/contentstr...

So, no more 5 or even 2.5% cashback on big basket, utility bills or nobroker rent payment via payzapp. I applied for this card just yesterday and was intended mainly for rent payment.

Now, it’s just like Amazon pay or Flipkart axis card. Currently Paytm Citi card still gives 3% on rent payment. Do you any other card, which gives more than this on rent payment now? Not counting the super premium cards like diners black, as I don’t have that much expenditure.

Genius Genius

Paytm Citi cc gives 2%.

Benevolent Benevolent
Link Copied

No, it gives 3% on Paytm rent mode. It does charge 1% as fee (which is applicable at nobroker as well). So, if you are subtracting that, then yeah overall 2%. I have been using this since last 2-3 months.

Genius Genius

Initially I too was getting 3%. Not sure they might have flagged my transactions.

Can anyone clear.. how to buy from Millennia cc now? My card is 7 months old now.

From now onwards, we can buy directly on Amazon without using smartbuy?

Also, buying gift vouchers of Amazon beneficial now (do we get CB)? Or directly making payment via cc is better on amazon ?

Genius Genius

Buying directly will most probably fetch you 5% reward point(up to 1000).
Better buy amazon voucher from Smartbuy Instant Voucher portal and get 5% cashback and 1% reward points.
