Great information. One more hack - if you want to transfer your points to Marriott Bonvoy, never do it directly. First transfer to ITC and from there to Bonvoy. This way you will get 12 points against 10 edge reward points
For a more ideal scenario; suppose someone spends 1L on magnus in a month; he/she is getting 31000 ER ( 25k + 6k ) which if converted to Accorpoints at 5:4 will give 24800 points. now if we take lower multiple of 2k ( As accor points are redeemable in multiples of 2k ) will give a value of 24000 * 1.8 = 43200 . Then the reward rate is 43.2% on accor points which is huge ( considering 1 accor point to be value 1.8 INR )
one of the best videos - also you covered accorplus - I have always seen people covering itc/taj/marriot, but accor seems to be best in terms of the redemption. keep it up man.
@@SpendWiselyOfficial Great that you are taking time in research. From my understanding the airmiles game is just too complex. I am going to use my Magnus ER for Accor primarily.
I have transferred my edge points (more than 1.5 lac) to ITC only. Then, I will transfer 50% green points to Marriott bonvoy. I will not transfer points to Vistara becz i already accumulated enough CV points & business class tickets through my Axis Club Vistara Infinite card.
Thanks for making this video. One doubt though: How much do one need to pay in cash (on the counter) apart from the points booking? Is it only for taxes or there is some rule on that calculation? Also, is that amount shown in the app once we are booking via points?
Suppose if I have to book ticket for my wife and my brother, then should I create vistara memebership ID for them too ? Then add that in my axis and transfer to their membership ? Or can I transfer the mile only to my account and book for them as well ?
Excellent work, very informative. Kindly make a similar video for the redemption process of flights in India, as Vistara is one option but Vistara is not available in all the sectors, if you can help with how to book airindia or some other airline via redemption process, it would be very helpful.
short note: if we spend 1lac then we get 36000 edge points which is equivalent to 43200 Rs in accor live which is almost 45% if spent all 1lac using grab deals which is 5x then for 1 lac we get 55000 edge points which is equivalent to 66,000 rs in accor live lol you are living free in accor live almost
Sir please share your experience on getting accelerated reward points and 25k bonus points. I heared it takes around 3 to 4 months to get these points. Please share your experience
in which program to convert the edge point is a confusing...coz time is short and have to trxsfer 1lac point . i plan for dubai with 3 of my family travel is 1lac sufficient for free trip . some body plz recommend. am confused how much in accor and spiceclub or vistara..and any other .. is cancelled my plan ..then whats the validity for accor and spiceclub
I am planning to transfer 70% in Accor, 30% in Vistara. Vistara has lot of international routes also now which are increasing, 3 yrs validity and good value. SpiceJet gives very low value of points
One question…I have Diners black card and my average monthly spend is 50K. Is Magnus better option for me? I typically use reward points for flight/hotel.
Sir please let me know how much airmiles points required(after converting axis edge points into airmiles/spice get) for a economy class ticket from kolkata to delhi ? In case of magnus card.
But sir ek bar batana Jo normally hotel book karte hai hum MMT ya kisi aur website se jisme June other card par discount milta hai to wo jyada benefit ha ya fir edge travel through
I haven’t used Travel Edge for hotel booking. But if you have Axis Magnus, you get 5x points which converts into 24% Airmiles. If you can use those Airmiles even at 1:1 rate, it is better than 10% instant discount with some upper limit offers on MMT
You can make booking of multiple rooms but you must be one of the guests staying in those rooms. You must be part of the trip. If you are not travelling, you can’t book hotel using Accor points as booking will be in your name
I tried to transfer edge reward points to Accor points, but there is a notification on Axis TravelEdge portal "Note: Redemption on Accor and Air Vistara is temporarily out of service. You can continue to redeem on the other partners". Kindly let us know whether they are permanently removed as partners? Any other hotel which can give us 1.8x redemption ratio like Accor?
Yes, it will work in same way. Just transfer Infinia points to same Accor ALL account, and book the hotel. There also 1 Point will fetch 1.8 rupees value
This analysis is not good. Everyone should consider their own lifestyle to calculate real value of point. How much would you pay for a night stay in Accor in your next destination. Some may be actually staying in such premium hotel and for them full value for each accor point. For some others, they may be willing to stay at a premium hotel like Accor if the price was discounted by 50-60%, and for them less value for accor point.
Probably, you don’t know much about Accor Hotels. Its has 39 hotel chains which includes IBIS Hotel also. IBIS Hotels are super budget hotel which are less than Rs.3000 per night. In many popular cities and tourist destinations, you can get it even lower than Rs.2,000 per night and it can be booked using Accor points. IBIS in Bangkok is available at just 2600 per night. You should have tried to research before commenting.
I have seen many videos on this topic but you have explained it perfectly. Thanks.
Thank you 😊

Yes, thanks 😊
After devaluation it's not working 😢
@dilipbhardwaj5391 not working now?
Best video on hotel booking through credit card reward points.Nicely explained
Thanks 😊

Yes, I showed the most conservative scenario without including milestone reward points
haha thats a great click bait idea right there but great video nevertheless.
Add 5X giftedge + 5X travel edge spends on top of it, the 43% will go higher and higher
@@CMGM55 lol. right. grabdeals 40x bhi add kar do.
very informative video! detailed explanation of how to use the benefit!
This is something really great on content! I have been looking out for this… thank you.. pls also
Post similar video on air miles conversion
Welcome 🤗. Will make similar one on Airmiles redemption
one of the best videos - also you covered accorplus - I have always seen people covering itc/taj/marriot, but accor seems to be best in terms of the redemption. keep it up man.
Thank you 🙏. I covered Accor because it has hotels for every budget
Good Video. For viewers sake, kindly note that Redemption on Accor & Air Vistara is temporarily out of service.
Currently most wanted video ....❤
Haha, Thanks dear 🤗
Which card is best for hotel booking? I dont need lounge access or air miles?
Accor points purchase kaise krna he??
Great video as always sir. Please make video on ER redemption for various airlines also and best value back tricks also
Thanks dear 😊. Airlines pe bhi banaunga. Let me complete my research on it, want to me sure on whatever I share in my video.

How to buy accor points?
Sir make a video on companion card to use along with magnus.
Good suggestion. Will make video on which additional card one should keep with Axis Magnus credit card.
From travel edge to air miles point to any airlines/hotel loyalty, it is giving 10:4 ratio. For 300 travel edge it is giving me only 120 point.
Thanks for making this video.

Great, how to use pay later option for booking with points?
Thank you sir for all the information

Yes you should for magnus
Yes, without Milestone also, you can consider Magnus. With new hotel and Airmiles partners, its worth considering
Sir please let me know how much airmiles points required(after converting axis edge points into airmiles/spice get) for a economy class ticket from kolkata to delhi ? In case of magnus card.
Its not so straightforward. I am doing my research to make a video on Airmiles also

Can I book for friend using this or only it is used for personal use only . I don’t see any information for adding other guests name?

Accor is also valid for infinia, will that work in the same way ?
Yes, it will work in same way. Just transfer Infinia points to same Accor ALL account, and book the hotel. There also 1 Point will fetch 1.8 rupees value
Hi only pay at hotel option visible on accor app if i click on any hotel , I dont understand why it is so?
Once you will transfer minimum 2000 Accor Points, then only you will see “Pay with Points“ option
Sir accor or vistara ka option ni aara ab jb axis ki site se m transfer kr ra hu points
i cant find any all eligible hotels now !!! can you confirm please??
How can we redeem Tata click vouchers?
Sir can i book ITC HOTEL by transferring magnus reward points to ITS GREEN points for my family trip without including my name in this domestic trip
Yes, you can
What about Air milea.?

Hi, does rent payment also counted for monthly milestone of 1 lac for Magnus?
Also do we get reward point for rent transactions?
It was removed, now for rent we do not get rewards
value of accor points is almost 2x? is it based on dynamic pricing?
No, its fixed conversion rate in Euros. 2000 Accor Points = EUR 40
