RBL Bank had a habit of running spend-based festive offers for select cardholders during Diwali in previous years. These were usually structured around thresholds like spend ₹X and get Y voucher/reward like Amazon Echo Dot for 2022.
However, I don’t recall seeing any such targeted offers rolled out during the 2024 festive season. It appears the bank skipped this pattern last year, but the good news is that RBL is back with festive offer for 2025, yet useless for most.
Offer Details
This year RBL is going for a “Top Spender Campaign”, the kind of offer which I don’t prefer to see.
That’s because, first we never know if the Bank is actually fulfilling it or not, second because there is no reward for those who spend a lot hoping for a reward and not get anything in return.
I’ve myself tested out this on Yesbank cards few years ago on one such top spender program and it’s certainly a proof that it’s not worth wasting the spend on such offers.
Nevertheless, here’s the offer, if you’re interested:
Ideally, top 10 spenders would iPhone Pro Max 256 GB. That’s great for those who would win.
But it would be lot better if they instead did something like “spend 5L and get Airpods” as it gives guaranteed return for end users and a transparent program as such.
Moreover, “top spender” kind of program is literally against some state government policies, like in Tamilnadu. So I hope this is the last time I see it from RBL or from any Bank for that matter.
How to Enroll?
While there are multiple ways to enrol via web/call/sms as you can see above, giving a missed call to 9355081748 is the easiest one.
After registering, you should get an instant acknowledgement SMS like below which I received. Though, the SMS mentioned a second confirmation within 24 hours, which I never arrived.
You can attempt to enrol even if you haven’t received the official email yet. However, the final eligibility depends on the targeted email that RBL is expected to trigger. This email will confirm whether your card/account is part of the campaign.
Given that the reward rate on RBL Bank credit cards like RBL World Safari is low, targeted offers are good to have but not the one we got this year.
Did you receive the email from RBL Bank for enrolling into the offer? Do let us know in the comments below.
RBL seems to have launched 2 super premium cards in metal called Nova and Lumiere at 12.5k and 50k annual fees respectively. Card design looks cool, especially the Lumiere which is the more expensive of the 2. Reminds me of the Palladium card in US. But they don’t offer rewards on utilities and insurance on even their most premium card.
You have spend 9.5 lac??
You got any mail from RBL?
any1 knows if someone participated and got the iphone? it’s almost 1.5 months since offer end date of oct 26. once again this offer has come for 5th dec 2025 to 5th jan 2026…i have more than 9.5L spends lined up….but not sure if rbl bank will truthfully honor the offer.
From where have you obtained these dates? I also received the notification regarding the same on 5th December. Could you please share the tnc’s if you have the link? I have already tried checking the website but was unable to find the tnc’s.
