How Are you Using BizBlack (Spends, Redemptions) ?

[PreciousTincture]

Spends:
I recently got BizBlack as a floater on my Infinia. Im maxing out my Bizblack "Key Spends" with paying taxes which get me 5x points with cap of 7500. now since i already have i do all smart buy spends on inifinia. which makes bizblack only useful for paying taxes unless im missing something. let me know if you have a strategy to do better with spends.

Redemption:
I cannot find a dedicated portal for bizblack where i can buy apple/tanishq products at 1:1 maybe thats not available. one might use the generic smartbuy to book hotels/flights. how/where are you redeeming the points ?

SQ is a travel partner. Have personally transferred successfully. Takes around 4 weekdays to reflect.

Yes for BizBlack, Intermiles and KrisFlyer are only two options (unlike other premium cards with tons of airlines and hotel options).

Hello everyone. Since the last time I used BizBlack milestone rewards on MMT, a lot has changed. Now Milestones are accessible only via their portal, and it shows only SmartBuy voucher and Taj voucher option. I had some questions around the SmartBuy voucher:

1. Can you use these SmartBuy vouchers on both flight and hotel bookings?
2. How many SmartBuy vouchers can you use per booking? As in, can we use all 4 SmartBuy vouchers of Rs. 5000 each totaling Rs. 20000 in a single booking?
3. For me, all milestones are unlocked, and it shows expiry date as 31st March 2026 for all the milestones. Is this a glitch or does it actually stay till then? And after redeeming the milestone, what is the expiry of SmartBuy or Taj voucher?

Would appreciate answers on these.

Thanks, waiting for more replies since my query isn't quite answered.
