Grab Upto 100,000 Reward Points with Yesbank Credit Cards Personalized Offer

By | September 21, 2017

Yesbank seems to have rolled out some personalized offers to SELECT customers wherein they can get accelerated points on spends made during 22nd August 2017 to 31st August 2017. I do hold yesbank preferred credit card but i haven’t received any message on this yet. Maybe their automated system decided that i don’t have the capacity to spend as i’ve swiped it for just Rs.100 so far ๐Ÿ˜€

100,000 Reward Points on Yesbank Credit Card

Yes Bank Credit Cards – 10 Days Festive Spends Bonanza

As part of the โ€˜10 Day Festive Spend Bonanzaโ€™ the Cardmembers have been assigned 2 levels of Spends targets on their Credit Card. On meeting the assigned targets the Cardmembers can earn accelerated RP’s during the Offer as per the below structure:

  • Maximum Cap: 1,00,000 Reward Points
  • Spend Duration: 22nd August 2017 to 31st August 2017
  • Offer Fulfillment: 31st October 2017

#1 Yes Prosperity Credit Cards – 3X & 5X Reward points

#2 Yes First Credit Cards – 2X & 3X Reward points

So the accelerated reward Rate for Yes First Credit Cards on hitting 3X target goes like this:

That’s quite high to spend, but this is by far the best in industry and stands next to Generous Diners club 10X reward points Promo. Its a quick month end promo to raise the “spend per card” parameter for the month/quarter.

Yesbank seems to be very aggressive in credit cards business. Future seems to be so good. Its the new HDFC in making, at-least in reward points perspective. Hence, if you’re still thinking to apply for YesBank cards, apply one now.

How does the Offer work?

(The below scenarios are for illustration purposes only, actual targets will be different for each Cardmember)
For example, a YES FIRST Exclusive Cardmember has been assigned a customised Target 1 of INR 20,000 and Target 2 of INR 40,000. The below scenarios may arise :

  1. Scenario 1
    If the Cardmember spends INR 30,000 (greater than Target 1) : As per the standard product RP rate of 10 RP/INR 100 the Cardmember shall earn 3,000 RP, but during the Offer Period the earn rate would be 2X and the Cardmember would get a total of 6,000 RP against their spends
  2. Scenario 2
    If the Cardmember spends INR 50,000(greater than Target 2): As per the standard product RP rate of 10 RP/INR 100 the Cardmember shall earn 5,000 RP, but during the Offer Period the earn rate would be 3 X and the Cardmember would get a total of 15,000 RP against their spends
  3. Scenario 3
    If the Cardmember spends INR 10,000 the Cardmember shall earn 1,000 RP as per the standard product RP rate of 10 RP/INR 100 and would not be eligible for the Bonanza Reward Points

Now the qn is, what happens to others those who havn’t received the SMS/email like me?

I’ll update the article once i get more info- as the phone banker says that their systems may have full info on this by tomorrow morning – 23rd Aug. Make sure to like us on Facebook for instant updates.

Until then, those who have received the offer – Happy 100k Reward points ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Update: Those cards that are setup on/before July 31st are only eligible for this offer. (1 month vintage required)
  • Update: Offer re-started again: Sep 20th – Sep 30th. Minor changes done to terms. Check source here.

      Thanks for the Numbers. So targets are around 50% and 75% of old spend (most likely)

        I Don’t think so. I have barely spent 1000 so far in aggregate. I have a 10K & 15K target. Guess it will be a combination of few factors

    For my yes first preferred card 3x target is 15000 and 2x is 10000. I feel it is fair target and easily achievable. This is now my main card after i spend 20k on Amex MRCC that give me more than 10% value back considering movie blockbuster program. I hold HDFC diners premium card too, i am unable to understand whether continue the same or surrender it as i dont see any utility after 15th August devaluation? Any suggestions??

          Yes prosperity is in my wifes name as i told you earlier they goofed up and did everything for prosperity and issued prosperity. Here i will mention one thing they sent me a scan copy of form and mitc with firged sign of my wife. My wife never signed that form but i dont wanna probe any further. Many things happened during that the sales rep suspended, his senior in bank rounded up he pleaded with us to take back our complaint etc.

          The prefered card is in my name.

        They said its only for Selected customers, I asked them what is the criteria based on which you select the customers for this offer ?
        No Clear Answer from them.
        My guess is whoever spent more on this card in short time are not eligible for this offer

        Reply
        1. Siddharth Post author

          Yes, that maybe the case too. The very reason for the offer is to increase spends per card/customer. So it makes sense.

          I have this YF Preferred card since April. Didn’t get any mai for this offer.
          I have spent some decent amount in Apr- June time frame. Is that the case that I didn’t get as I get to understand…
          Asked the Branch RM. He will get back. As of now seems the branch RM are not aware.

        Hi,
        I asked my Yes Bank RM.. Seems he pushed for it ( I have a Saving a/c with them).
        Initially he too was told that its only for “specific clients”. I had coaxed him to push my case hard..

        I got the mail yesterday late evening. Targets for me are 2x – 21 K / 3x – 24.5 K.

        I don’t have a good experience with Yes Bank customer care team ( bank / credit card) I go thru the branch ( RM / Branch Mgr) They are able to push the case better as I see.

        Regards,
        Balpreet
