Calculation Method
How Are Reward Points Calculated?
The calculator first estimates the number of points earned from your eligible spending. Bonus points are then added. The total points are multiplied by the value of one point for the selected redemption method.
Base Points =
Spending ÷ 100 × Points per ₹100
Total Points =
Base Points + Bonus Points
Redemption Value =
Total Points × Value Per Point
Effective Reward Rate =
Net Reward Value ÷ Spending × 100
Important
Why Redemption Method Matters
A reward point does not necessarily have one fixed value. The value can change depending on how you redeem it. Therefore, comparing only the number of points can be misleading.
Cash
Often easier to understand because the value is directly expressed in money.
Voucher
Value depends on the voucher or shopping redemption rate.
Travel
Travel redemptions may have a different value per point.
Other
Enter the actual value applicable to your redemption option.
Example: Voucher Redemption
Suppose you spend ₹50,000 and earn 4 points for every ₹100. If each point gives ₹0.50 of voucher value:
Spending
₹50,000
Points per ₹100
4
Points Earned
2,000
Redemption
Voucher
Value Per Point
₹0.50
Reward Value
₹1,000
Compare Redemption Values
The same 2,000 points can have different values depending on the redemption method.
₹0.25 / point
₹500
₹0.50 / point
₹1,000
₹1.00 / point
₹2,000
These are illustrative values only. Actual redemption values vary by card issuer and redemption option.
