Reliance SBI Card holders are set to enjoy exclusive rewards based on their spending patterns. These benefits will encompass special welcome perks, tailor-made travel and entertainment advantages, and even spends-based milestone rewards, such as renewal fee waivers and Reliance Retail vouchers.
This co-branded offering will be available in two distinct variants — the Reliance SBI Card and the Reliance SBI Card PRIME. The annual renewal fee for the Reliance SBI Card PRIME is ₹2,999, along with applicable taxes, while the Reliance SBI Card costs ₹499 plus taxes.
Cardholders also have the opportunity to waive the renewal fee upon reaching the annual spending milestones of ₹3,00,000 for PRIME card and ₹1,00,000 for the Reliance SBI Card.
As per an exchange filing, the primary aim is to provide a holistic and rewarding shopping experience across customer segments, catering to a wide range of spending needs, from mass-market consumers to premium clientele.
