Our verdict

RBL Platinum Maxima Plus earns 10 reward points per ₹100 (about 2.5% back at an assumed ₹0.25 a point) on grocery, dining, entertainment and international spends, up to 1,000 points a month across those categories, with a base of 2 points per ₹100 (about 0.5%). That makes it a points card for daily household spenders who also dine out regularly, at a ₹2,500 joining and annual fee.

Pros

  • 10 points per ₹100 on grocery (about 2.5% back) is especially valuable for families, though the 1,000-point monthly cap is shared across the bonus categories
  • Base rate of 2 points per ₹100 earns on everyday non-category purchases too
  • Milestone bonuses of 10,000 points each at ₹2L, ₹3.5L and ₹5L annual spend help offset the annual fee
  • Up to 8 domestic lounge visits a year (2 per quarter, if previous-quarter spend is ₹35,000+)

Cons

  • 3.5% forex makes it poorly suited for international travel
  • ₹2,500 joining and annual fee with no spend-based fee waiver
  • RBL Bank's smaller footprint means fewer physical customer service options
  • RBL does not state a per-point value for this card and each redemption carries a ₹99 + GST fee, so check before relying on it
