SBI (State Bank Of India) is going to make changes regarding the points received on online purchases through credit cards. The bank has made a major change in the credit card reward point policy, which will be effective from January 1. That’s why credit card holders must redeem their reward points before January 1. At the same time, the processing fee on bank credit card transactions has been increased to Rs 100.
SBI Reward Points will be less from new year
SBI has revised the reward point rules for credit card holders on purchases. According to SBI, 10 times the reward point earned from shopping on Amazon.in has been reduced.
