Standard Chartered Super Value Titanium Credit Card Review

Share this on:

The card we are reviewing today is the Standard Chartered Super Value Titanium Credit Card. Interestingly, the card has been advertised on the official web-page as “the best card to pay your bills”.

The Standard Chartered Bank started its operation in India in 1858 and has been going strong ever since.

With a legacy that runs more than 150+ years, the Standard Chartered Bank is a veteran in providing financial services to the ever-progressing India.

The Standard Chartered Super Value Titanium Credit Card is a Cashback + Rewards Card. It is primarily a Cashback card as its benefits are geared more towards earning cashback. You can earn a percentage of cashback on certain categories of expenditure like phone bills and fuel, etc.. For all other categories of spending, you will earn reward points that can be used for purchasing goods from the bank’s goods catalog portal named 360° Rewards.

Let us take a close look at the benefits and best services provided by the Super Value Titanium Credit Card and judge for ourselves if it indeed justifies “the best card” tag in terms of paying bills. Let us also see if it really does save us ₹ 6000 per year on bill payments as advertised on the official webpage.

Our Verdict on the Standard Chartered Super Value Titanium Credit Card

The Standard Chartered Super Value Titanium Credit Card is perfect for you if you :

– have your own commute and have a set fuel expense every month
– are responsible for paying utility bills of the house
– have considerable telephone usage in the form of landline or mobile phone

Considering the low call rates for mobiles, and how people are relying more and more on VoIP or internet-based calls for long-distance calling, the telephone utility part of the credit card does not seem very relevant. Most landlines too have lower monthly costs these days due to rapid digitization. With ₹ 750 as the minimum transaction (for a single transaction) to avail ₹ 200 cashback, the 5% cashback benefit on telephone bill can best be utilized once in a quarter of months.

The reward point structure of 1 point every ₹ 150 spent isn’t the best in the market either.

For paying for fuel and utility bills, this is a good card. It will ensure that you save at least ₹ 250 – ₹ 300 every month. That saves you a  minimum total of around ₹ 3000- ₹ 3,600 per year. Add to it the reward points benefits and the offers and discounts offered from time to time, and this card almost becomes a must-have.

We do not recommend this card as a first-ever credit card. But this card is a great one for the responsible householder who is in charge of paying the bills of the house and owns his or her own commute. If you fit this category, go for it, it won’t disappoint you.
