Respected dimers! I would like to know if I can use the Rupay Prepaid card (Fortum Charge&Drive) to pay for fuel. Thanks for your time.

He's planning to convert this to 5% flat prepaid fuel card... not a bad idea. Also, buy medicines and what not...

BUT after the recent loot fortum people will "make" a lot of artificial glitches and difficulties...

You're right bro. In this way I think one can make an online only rewards card (SBI CB for example) to an offline reward one. One can buy groceries in the supermarket after loading the prepaid card and make use of the 5% cb or 5x rp which is meant only for online spends and thus make the card 5% anywhere. Correct me if I'm wrong.

UPDATE: Tried at a fuel station and the transaction failed back to back sob

@sendhil.warrior304 It isn't billed as wallet load, but by other car/travel related MCC while loading...

@Yasar-Arafath Try as he said, may work by toggling in both apps... do fortum first, then pine.

There are some MCC restrictions for pine labs rupay prepaid cards in general, was reading about those a few days ago, EDIT: GOT HERE  | Fortum Card TnC

What I intend is to use this card online for making some recurring payments like eduQfix and gold scheme emi which sbi cb card will be dropping from next month onwards...

Also, I didn't receive physical card (in February, clicked request in app but may be it failed somehow and option to request doesn't come again)... Should I mail fortum to send physical card? @abhishek012

My physical card was not delivered initially. I mailed fortum and they asked me to contact pinelabs([email protected]) as they are the ones managing logistics. Card got delivered last week, working fine on pos machines(IDBI).

I've been facing a problem with the app. I have registered using my email ID and then it asks to input registered mobile number. When I do that it asks for OTP.. the otp sms never comes.  I've left feedback on the play Store, emailed them but no luck. Any suggestions on how to get the otp.

This is to complete the registration not to load balance etc
