The Paytm SBI Card SELECT is the premium Paytm co-brand from SBI Card. It pays 5% back on travel booked in the Paytm app, 2% on other Paytm purchases and 1% everywhere else, including UPI.

Rewards come as SBI reward points worth ₹1 each, and statement-credit redemption has been capped since April 2026.

Travel booked in the Paytm app5%
Other Paytm app purchases2%
All other spends, including UPI1%

Points are worth ₹1 each. Since April 2026 statement-credit redemption is capped monthly and must be in set multiples.

Worked example: Book ₹40,000 of travel on Paytm a year, spend ₹60,000 on other Paytm purchases and ₹3 lakh elsewhere: ₹2,000 + ₹1,200 + ₹3,000 = ₹6,200 in points, plus a ₹2,000 milestone voucher at ₹4 lakh total spend. The fee is waived.

What earns nothing

Wallet loads, fuel and (since 9 Mar 2026) school and education payments earn no points.

Who this card is for

  • Good fit: Paytm users who book travel in the app and want a 1% card for everything else.
  • Skip if: you rarely use Paytm — a flat cashback card is simpler.

Alternatives worth comparing

Final verdict

A reasonable Paytm card with 1% on everything and higher rates in-app. Its Priority Pass has no free visits, so do not count it as an international lounge card.
