Have we finally settled on a mechanism to pay rent via an AmEx card?

[yashendra2797]

Hey, so I recently acquired the MRCC and Plat Travel (already have a Plat Charge), and wanted to reach the 4L milestone on my Plat Travel. I was thinking of doing 4X 5000 Amazon Pay GV transactions via gyftr on MRCC to hit both milestones.

I have to pay 11K rent from this month, and I was thinking of using the Plat Travel. Seems like the last 2 holdouts PhonePe and MobiKwik both have stopped rent payments via AmEx. What's the best method to pay rent now? Should I add money via the CC to PayTM and send it to my landlord? Or should I add money to Mobikwik, withdraw, and then UPI?

Try wallet load

Yes Wallet load is working. But it can't be used for rent payment.

Hello, can payzapp wallet be loaded using Amex card and can that wallet balance be used for recharge for livquik fastag? Any extra charge associated with wallet loading and recharge in this case?

Payzapp does not support Amex cards for any transactions

Then it seems like, fastag recharge using cred at extra 1.5% charge for amex cards is the only option? Because if I reach milestone of 1.9 lacs with 23000 RPs ( considering 7k FK voucher approximately), which narrows down to approx 3.7% return. Effective return will be 3.7-1.5 = 2.1%. Correct me if I am wrong.

Call me crazy but giving extra charges up front for eventual returns is not a good deal. Why don't you ask friends and family to contact you whenever they need to purchase from any of the Gyftr outlets and you can just give them vouchers. Many Gyftr vouchers have discounts which you can pass them. You get multiplier rewards as well as milestone rewards, they don't lose. Win win situation.

Transfer to bank is free

What does this mean ?
Does it mean that one can transfer money to house owner's account directly through an AMEX card ?
Has this been tried before ? Also does this count towards plat travel milestones ?

wallet loading has charges
transferring baloance from wallet to bank is free

Understood. Thanks for clarifying.
