I’ve been waiting for IDFC First bank credit card offers to kick-in on my IDFC First Select credit card for a while and I’m glad that it happened before 2021 comes to an end.
Here’s a small yet wonderful New Year offer that you shouldn’t be missing out, just incase you’ve received the same, as it’s a TARGETED offer.
Offer Details
- Offer: Get XXX Reward points on performing XXX spends
- Offer Period: 16th Dec 2021 – 5th Jan 2022
- Min. Spend: Rs.100 per txn
- Min. txns to take: 5 transactions (depends on the offer)
- Fulfilment: 60 days after offer end date
- Source: SMS
Some have received the offer as mobile push notification as well. Below is the one Satish received. So it’s time to enable the notifications. 😀
Note: The offer is different for different cardholders, just like how AMEX/HDFC does. Do pay attention to the SMS you’ve received.
Offer Variants
- Get 10K points on spending 20K INR
- Get 7.5K points on taking 5 txns
- Get 5K points on taking 5 txns
So in my case (#3 offer), all I need to do is just spend Rs.100 * 5 times anywhere (no restrictions) and boom, you’re eligible for the offer.
That’s the simplest & easiest way to earn Rs.1250 worth of reward points in the world.
An interesting point to note here is that you just need to spend Rs.500 (minimum) but you get rewards more than what you spend. Whoever designed this offer, may he/she live long. 😀
Just to avoid unwanted triggers to IDFC, consider spending normally, meaning, don’t go ahead and load wallets in 100’s five times. Try to be generous, just as how IDFC is with this offer.
Bottomline
Finally its good to see that IDFC Bank is focusing on credit card offers, as they were quite busy with debit card offers like 1% & 10% cashback offers all these days.
Hope such promos on IDFC Credit card increases in coming months with better targeted offers like higher spend/rewards for premium cards, faster fulfilment like above and more.
I see IDFC Cards as the “most undervalued credit card in 2021” and also perhaps in 2022. If you don’t have IDFC First Credit Card, it’s probably the right time to grab one – Apply Now
- Update: Offer fulfilled on 20th Jan 2022
Thanks to IDFC First for opening the New Year 2022 with generous rewards!
Is this targeted offer or applicable to all?
I did not receive this offer yet.
Yes, it is targeted.
Not to forget 100% cashback upto INR 500 for each new addon card. IDFC is firing all cylinders
Hi Harsh, where did you read about that?
Got this message for the Wealth card that I am holding!
I got the same offer in Jan… In how many days did you get the cashback…. And what is the tnc for this… I received the msg on whatsapp from IDFC but there is no tnc in that
Hi Siddarth,
Is this a targetted offer? I am assuming its not , since its not specified by you.
Yes this targeted offer, clearly written in t&c
My offer.
Ho ho holidays are here and so is the gifting season. Get 10000 Rewards on minimum purchase of Rs. 20,000 with your IDFC FIRST Bank Credit Card till 5th Jan 2021 Know more idfcfir.st/49785c T&Cs apply.
Thanks. So multiple offer variants are there.
Thanks to others as well, have updated the article with all the offer variants known so far.
Is this a targeted offer? As I did not get any such offer without email
Hi Sid
I never received any spend offer yet on my select card. is this for targeted customers or across board.
Thanks
Hi Siddharth, thanks for the article but I think this is user specific from the t&c
Please let me know if it is otherwise, thanks
Yes it is, but many have received. So not sure how many % of users its targeted. Good to check with support just incase if one haven’t received the SMS.
SMS received States that 5000 points on minimum spend of 10000 between 16th December to 5th January
I’ve received an offer of 10K reward points (min 20K spend) on my wealth card. Still a decent offer
There is another offer of 10000 points on spending 20000 rupees
This one is also targeted
“Whoever designed this offer, may he/she live long”.. Exactly my mind voice when i received the SMS 😀 Probably one of the simplest and best offer in recent times
Hey Sid, I received this offer too. And its very lucrative one, planning to buy amazon vouchers 100 * 5… Thanks!
I am also planning for the same and found a offer in Amazon for 25rs cashback for credit card bill payment of 300 or above.
So 255% in return 😜
This is exactly what sid requested us not to !
Wallets,buying vouchers repeatedly..why trigger IDFC’s system..am sure 5 transactions of 100 and above are not to much .
I got a slightly different offer. 5000 rewards point on spending 10,000/- before 5th Jan.
Looks like I am the only one who got a raw deal 🙁
I got the same offer
I got the same offer on my first select card
5000 rewards point on spending 10,000/- before 5th Jan.
Got the following on my IDFC First Wealth card:
Ho ho holidays are here and so is the gifting season. Get 7,500 Rewards on minimum 5 transactions with your IDFC FIRST Bank Credit Card till 5th Jan 2021 Know more idfcfir.st/49785c T&Cs apply.
Is it applicable for IDFC first One Card ?
Did not received any offer on my Wealth card.
Same here. My (wealth) card is one month old.
I received the 10k points on 20k spend offer. Could anyone clarify if insurance payments will be counted as trans cation for this offer ?
Jewelry, Insurance, Fuel will not count
Is it available in terms and conditions ? I could not spot that
Will it be valid on fuel purchase for cumulative spends count. Although basic card features rewards may not get added but for offer can such spends be taken into consideration?
I have received this offer for my weath credit card on Tuesday. But thanks for sharing this information as I have seen SMS after reading article.
It seems lot of offers are being released for wealth customers in December.
I got spend 10000 to get 5000 points. Recently not used card very often maybe for some small offers on bigbasket etc..
Hi, Where can I get the details of the offer of getting 2000 bonus reward points(value: Rs.500) on spending Rs.500 within 30 days of card issuance? Or will it come over SMS? I have applied the card 31st Dec and also recived the card. In the welcome kit, I have seen the offer of getting a voucher worth Rs. 500 by spending Rs. 15k within 90 days of card issuance.
Got a email stating use the card for 7 times before 15th February and get 6000 points.
There are different slabs like use for 6 times get xxx points.
Has any one else got such mail
IDFC is on full swing. Another similar offer on select card, applicable separately on add on card too. Spend 7 or more times, get 6000 reward points. In t&c it is mentioned no minimum transaction amount(Not even 100 Rs). IDFC has gone crazy.
