HDFC has launched a limited-time redemption offer for cardholders of their top-tier cards. Similar to the promotion that ran in October 2021, this offer lets holders of HDFC Infinia and Diners Club Black cards redeem reward points for vouchers at a higher value than usual. Instead of the standard 50 paise per point, points can be redeemed at 70 paise each for voucher redemptions during the promotional window.
- Offer: Redeem points for vouchers at 1:0.70 INR
- Offer Period: 18th Dec to 20th Dec 2021
This promotion may not apply to all HDFC card variants, so cardholders should check their specific card rewards portal to confirm eligibility and available redemption options.
The offer is particularly useful for members whose points are nearing expiry or for those who prefer immediate, flexible value over transferring points to airline or hotel partners. For example, many travelers usually move points to Club Vistara, but with travel uncertainty due to the Omicron variant at the time, converting points into Amazon vouchers at a better rate provided a practical alternative.
I personally redeemed a portion of points that were close to expiring and the voucher issuance completed in under five minutes. The quick processing made the redemption convenient and reassuring.
In addition to the improved voucher rate, HDFC has been promoting a Buy One Get One-style offer through its rewards portal for about a month. Certain products and categories qualify for this redemption feature. While the available items may not appeal to everyone, it’s worth browsing the rewards catalogue to see if any selections match your needs or gift ideas.
