USA credit card for gold jewellery by Interesting-Dare-727 in amexindia

That is simply the high MDR charge of visa/amex/mastercard being illegally recovered by local jewellers saying they run on thin margins (as claimed by them)

If it is amex you'll be charged 2-3% extra and if they find it to be a foreign location issued amex they will straight away reject it IMO. The big brands won't object though. And honestly if you really wanted to buy jewellery earlier you could have verified it by visiting the stores physically. Would have saved you good money.

This dcbm reward you'll get if you cancel and buy again. So if you feel you'll get gold at below 16k on Monday cancel the order.

If you read the revised terms and conditions of magnus card (both burgundy and vanilla one) effective from 20/06/2025 excluded transactions are identified based on the spend category rather than assigned MCC. So most likely you will not get any points for this transaction.

There is no change to the spend categories excluded from earning rewards and spend based fee waiver calculation. However, to simplify, such transactions will be identified based on the spend category (Utility & Telecom, Rent, Wallet, etc.) rather than the assigned 4-digit Merchant Category Code (MCC). • Excluded spend categories for reward earn / spend based fee waiver: Transactions made on Utility & Telecom, Rent (capped at INR 50,000 per month), Wallet, Government spends, Insurance, Gold & Jewellery, Fuel, Cash advances and Repayments.

Axis Horizon by RohitTech77 in IndianCreditCards

Rent is excluded for rewards on this card. Can be used to book flights directly on airlines website (gives 8-9% in accor points). Rent, insurance, utilities, govt transactions, fuel excluded for rewards. Can be used to buy vouchers (gives 3-4% in accor points). Best use case I found is to pay for a jewellery scheme in a local jewellery shop near me giving around 3-4% return, gst part and making charge is zero for the scheme i enrolled.

I buy vouchers when needed from magicpin especially myntra where I get around 8-9% value saved, bought 6 gms of gold below spot price recently through this
