This is a very good step, hope other banks will follow and also charge 1% on wallet spend and education spend.

Flipkart like ecom site also use education and wallet merchant category.

Now imagine, you purchased AC, TV etc. worth Rs 30,000 from Flipkart and merchant category tag wallet.

There will be no problem for you to pay Rs 300 extra but think about it how profitable will it be for the banks. If each customer will pay 1% extra.

Then gradually banks will start charging 1% on all merchant categories.

The customer will not have any problem in paying 1% extra in the long run.

This will be a win-win for everyone.

IDFC First Bank has devalued by a lot. Now, the users will get one-third reward points only.

Example: for every Rs 300 spent, earlier the benefit was 18 reward points but now it's just 6.

Even the savings bank account is earning just 3-4% for the initial 5 lacs. 

People will now move to other banks. If I'm getting 3% on IDFC and ICICI, I'll keep it in ICICI instead.
