Best Way to use SC Ultimate Credit Card

How to reap the maximum benefits of SC Ultimate CC?

They say that they give 6000 points as a welcome bonus, so the price makes up for itself for the first year. From second year onwards, it depends on spending

before thinking like that do check reward website and see which one will you purchase with those 6000 points.

Than search and find in other websites how much discount those products are getting.

Based on that find how much those 6000 points worth.

most important which voucher did you like in those catelogue.? because no matter if they provide 10000 points, if you do not like any of them, then I consider all points are 0 or unnecessary purchase.

yep.. all mediocre vouchers.. Brands only.

Apay is the only one i consider 1:1 and couldn't find that. (Even flipkart, tata cliq not availble.)

those are never there atleast since 3 years, even if it provides 3.33% rewards on wallet, tax payments etc. at the end of the day, I usually didn't find any good option to redeem. So, unless one can be ok with available vouchers, can take the card. Otherwise, its no good. You're unnecessarily spending for unwanted vouchers.

Great points thanks. Uber is going to be fully useful for me since it's pretty much all I use while travelling in Bangalore (Uber autos are priced fairly in Bangalore due to regulations). I'm just hoping that we get 1:1 on converting to Uber vouchers, something that the award website shows as 4:1

if i kept other than cash, no uber or ola accept my ride.

yes, its 1:1 and available. you have use with Ultimate.

Ahh that's odd. I always use with Amazon Pay currently, and have mostly not had an issue getting a ride accepted. Maybe, it depends on the area of Bangalore

Great to know that it's 1:1. Thanks

You are right. Even ITC and Marriott are not there at present. Not sure if it’s temporary or removed permanently

 

[MangoRush]

No point in using this card then

Those vouchers have been gone for the past 3 days. Might be restored, but I've little hope. Not that they were very attractive in the first place.

As per the terms & conditions request for revalidation of expired vouchers can be made however what additional conditions might be imposed on renewed vouchers is subject to their discretion.

Renewal of my card is due in couple of months. Looking to cancel the card. Have around 15k RPs, cant find anything useful in the GV catalogue. Any suggestions what to do? Can we expect any additions in GV?

Buy Allen Solly or Levis or LP vouchers for dresses if needed in near future.

Voucher redemption is always subject to respective use case. I prefer Uber, Decathlon, Pepper Fry, Urban Ladder, Barbeque Nation as options for redemption. Catalogue is dynamic so need to check timely for available brands and denominations.
