Oh nice! I'll try Payzapp. Citi and/or Amex plat both would give points?

Edit: Just saw that it's not possible to add Amex to Payzapp. However even with Citi Prestige the max amount it allows me to pay is 1 Lac which is proving to be a problem. Need to find another app that I can use other than payzapp.

Citi gives points for sure.

Why is the limit a problem? Make 2, 3 or 10 payments....

Otherwise Amazon Pay is a good option as well. They have the 1L limit as well I think for direct payments or you can buy multiple gift cards and add to your Amazon Pay balance and use that to pay.

Thanks for the tip. Just used Amazon pay to make 1 payment each from Citi and Amex to see if both give the points. Trying one payment from payzapp which is under 1 lac since for larger single premiums it doesn't give an option to pay amount lower than the full due.

Correction - Amazon Pay Balance linked to CC reloads not direct.

Oh sigh. Just made 2 payments direct using Amazon pay. So now I'll reload and try it.

Edit: Gotta complete KYC 1st I guess. Anyway for payzapp can I use direct or for that too I have to go the reload route?

As I said earlier they both have the 1L limit. That's probably a GoI limit. So I don't think it solves your problem anyways. Perhaps Pay Balance + GV top ups - but that may still have the 1L ceiling. So unless you're paying 1L+ premiums monthly you can ask your insurer to split your payments I guess.

Payzapp is direct payments.

Payzapp is direct payments.
Finished KYC with Amazon Pay and the limit to add on it is 10k per month or 1 lac per year. So clearly it won't work for my insurance purposes.

I guess Payzapp direct payments using citi is the best way to go about this. Will get payments split to less than 1 lac for future payments.

Add balance through GVs. However that will be very painful since it has a 10k limit per GV. However Payzapp is a far better option.

GVs do sound painful. Now only if I can get the Payzapp app to not bug out on me.

Edit: Payzapp support has told me that the default max transaction limit is only 50k. Any transactions above that amount have to be informed to them prior to initiating. I've sent them an email for the same but this seems to be as tedious as adding GVs.

Since you are a FTer... given the choice between forgoing miles and grinding through the GVs... the choice is obvious.

Slightly OT but I do quite a bit of Insurance billing through my business. Amex Plat corporate only gives me something silly like 400 miles per 1L. Citi doesn't allow me to bill through them saying they will shut the card if I use it on business spend. Is there any other card which might be better?
